Love songs are never out of date...
Once again I was touched by love when my dear friend and neighbor came through the back door, violin in hand and played the perfect song in celebration of what would have been Leonard's and my 66th wedding anniversary. She played it once before as I danced around the floor, with the love of my life, at our 50th Anniversary Party; with all our friends and family looking on. Both times I will never forget. What a precious gift, "our song" played fresh and new right here in my kitchen where Leonard and I spent so many years of our lives.
Thank you Susan, from the bottom of my heart...and
Happy Anniversary, Darling, my memories are perfect...so
Play it again, Sam
You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.
Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.
Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.
Again, thank you, Susan, for the dance.
{And thank you, Lord, for giving me a fourth daughter
right next door.}

What a true gift from your wonderful neighbor, Momma. Susan and Dennis, thank you for your love and support to our Mom and Dad as time has gone by. Your family is another touch of God's love on our family. We owe you so much for all the times you have been there for them. We love you!
Ok, I haven't seen this post before. And now I can't see through the tears.....I just can't think of anything else more special than to have Susan come over and play that beautiful song--so full of a life's journey--to you on your anniversary...I pray one day I can be just that thoughtful!! What a lovely gift. And a lovely friend.
