Happy Anniversary! My kids never know what to say either, so I send them an e-mail on their dad's birthday reminding them to raise a glass of his favorite beer up high and toast his life. Our anniversary is my turn to make a toast and thank him for all the memories he left me with. And yes, I still cry a bit after 10 years.(hugs to you!)

I'm sending warm thoughts to you today. I'm sure the kids are maybe just busy, or maybe the date just got away from them. It sounds like you and your husband had some wonderful years together. My sympathy for your loss.

It would of made my day a little less lonely. Thanks for letting me vent and thanks to those that understand my feelings
"happy ------" when DH is gone. Still what would we do without the memories? Glad you posted here and I am wishing you Blessed Memories.

I light a candle on my parents anniversary every year.Both are gone now Dad 22 yrs and Mom 7 years. I also light one on their birthdays. I celebrate with stories and my kids luckly don't tire of it. Miss them terribly.
So many of us have a story or two. Our hearts go out to you with hugs for we understand. So Sassey I'll raise a glass to you and say happy anniversary. For it is an anniversary for you to look back on with loving memories.

Sometimes we children just don't remember that you have a special day or just don't want you to feel worse because you love is no longer around physically. Maybe you can gently remind them that your wedding anniversary is still a very special day to you and always will be. Happy Anniversary to, I know your husband is celebrating with you on the other side.
