For Maryanne...

Not my words, but certainly my sentiment...remember?

Here is a YouTube video with the song...and the pictures are nice, but don't necessarily match the song.



Beautiful, ©1972 by Gordon Lightfoot

At times I just don't know
How you could be anything but beautiful
I think that I was made for you and you were made for me
And I know that I will never change
'Cause we've been friends through rain or shine
For such a long, long time

Laughing eyes and smiling face, it seems so lucky just to have the right
Of telling you with all my might, you're beautiful tonight
And I know that you will never stray
'Cause you been that way, from day to day
For such a long, long time

And when you hold me tight, how could life be anything but beautiful
I think that I was made for you and you were made for me
And I know that I will never change
'Cause we've been friends through rain or shine
For such a long, long time

Well I must say it means so much to me, to be the one
Who's telling you, I'm telling you, that you're beautiful



I love you Mar

Growing up you would do and say this kind of stuff when all three of us were around. I remember all three of us would freak out and tell you how gross it was. You would always say the same thing, "If you don't see me treat your mom like this, how will you know that your husband is supposed to treat you this way?" I always thought you were crazy. Now that I'm married I really appreciate the example. :-)

It's not her birthday, and I know when your anniversary is - so it's not that either. With some men, a reader might wonder what you did wrong that you had to do something sweet like this to make up for it. But knowing you - something little happened that made you smile and you just wanted everyone to know how awesome your wife is. Of course, she is - but it really is a sweet post!

On a side note - you're right the video images are pretty - but we need to set you up with a video editing thing that you can use that song and put images of Mar on it instead ... it'd be much better!!
