Boyfriend-Girlfriend

Sixteen years ago today, did you have any clue what you were getting into? If you could turn back time (say that with your best Cher impression), would you have still asked me to be your girlfriend? Sixteen years covers a heck of a lot of time. Almost half of our lives. We've tackled multiple graduations, trips to the emergency room, the advent of rollerblades...my god, the advent of email, child birth, swing dance class, layoffs, our twenties, deaths of loved ones, marriage, even a recent trip to Chuck E Cheese. Sixteen years ago this night, when you told me to pop the balloon, as the confetti came sprinkling down on my head in the car and as I read your note, "Will you go out with me? I love you."...damn you always had a way with words...did you have any idea we'd be here today? I didn't either...but boy am I glad.
Much love to my best friend. Thanks for being brave.
