My 3rd Best Day

Devon:  Good morning!  Happy Anniversary!

Me:  Good morning- happy anniversary honey!

Devon:  Five years ago...  best day of my life.

Me:  It was the third best day of my life.

Devon:  What?!  Oh, the days that the babies were born?

Me:  Well, yes, I mean, come on, a human being grew inside of me and then emerged from my body... it is kinda hard to compete with that.

Devon: Okay, but maybe you should consider that if we hadn't gotten married, then there would have never been a Lucy and a Max.

Me:  True, and while our wedding day was wonderful, the happiest days of my life were when I gave birth.

Devon:  Well, the day that I married you was my happiest day, followed by the birthdays, because I maintain that there had to be "us" before there was "them."

Me: If it makes you feel any better, you are my #1.  No competition there!  You win!

Devon:  I'll take it!

Happy Anniversary, to my #1!
I love you!

Ha! So sweet! Yep, pretty hard to compete with the day where heaven meets earth!

But Devon DOES have a very valid point...

Happy Anniversary!! I hope you two can manage a hot date! Donna? Donna? Donna? (asked in the same tone of Bueller) :)

That sounds soooo Devon!
Devon does have a point, but being a mother (as Devon never can be, thank goodness) I understand your point too. The events are different but equal, how's that?

It has been a very productive five years and I am so glad you married my son, Annie, and love him maybe as much as I do (different but equal?).
