August 24, 1983
One of the greatest days in history
You finally agreed to go out with me
It took a while before you would say yes
You weren’t very impressed with me I guess
But I was persistent you must confess
Six years later, and lots of time to run
Yet our love grew strong, our doubts were undone
And together we agreed to be one
Our 24 was now the date we set
In June of ’89, a day to let
The whole world see what our love would beget
The happiest day of my life, I’d say
Though many happy days have come our way
They all go back to that 24th day
It was on that day you became my wife
And though we’ve had our trials and our strife
It’s you that makes my life…well…a real life
Without you, there is no us, that’s for sure
Without us, we’d not have those other four
Our children, those blessings like never before
Ups and downs and moving from place to place
What an adventure, and proof of God’s grace
That I still see love in your lovely face
Now we celebrate a new 24
The number of years that have passed before
Our eyes and are gone; yet opened the door
For enjoying at least 24 more
I can’t wait to see what God has in store
