Happy anniversary! It's awesome to see Buby's grandparents still in love after all these years. They came from such different worlds, dated briefly, married young, and stuck by each other's side during the best and worst life had to offer. They will be the first to admit marriage was not always easy breezy, but they embraced it. And learned to love and anticipate each other's quirky idiosyncrasies to the point of silliness. Honestly, it's fun to see them get older together. Bubies are smart (I know mine is), and I'm positive that he senses this affection. Just as kids can see heartache, they see love. Buby knows love well. And as his mama, this makes me very happy. Here are 10 things about my parents, and the two people Buby lovingly refers to as Graga & Bompow.
- They keep each other company at 4am
- They call just to hear the other's voice
- They are like one person when dealing with their kids
- They totally get each other's senses of humor
- They know life is a roller coaster that you just have to ride
- They can persuade each other into doing almost anything
- They defend each other without hesitation
- They could not be more different, and that's okay by them
- They love all their grandchildren just the same
- They would never disparage the other in front of anyone

Thank you for such kind words and wisdom. I think you really "get" us and we love that you do. It's been a wonderful 33 years and I look forward to everyday that we get to be together. We have each other and 3 children that we're very proud of. You were all a delight to raise and have made excellent life partners for yourselves.Now we're the lucky ones who get to experience a "special" love for all of our grandchildren. We love you all very much!
