Happy Anniversary to us--10 Years!!

Where have I been? Man, when work gets busy, everything else goes to the wayside.

But, I'm back, and I have a great announcement. Today is J's and my 10 year anniversary! How crazy is that?!? J likes to tell people we met when we were 13, just to watch their reactions. It's kind of funny to see how many people fall for it. Actually, we were wee college students the young age of 19 and 20.

To commemorate this very special occasion, I have written a little diddy or two.

First one (it's a little self absorbent, which I find hilarious):

it was ten years ago today, when J and T were meeting.
there were three little twinkles in their eyes, when over the threshold J was carried.
J and T are the greatest, you're the greatest couple the world has ever seen.
we love you both, we wish you the best, happy anniversary, great joy and happiness.

happy anniversary, happy anniversary to you.
happy anniversary, happy anniversary to you.
T you're the king of the bread winner's heart, and J, you're the queen of homos.
Parker, Twilo and Dane, our lucky son and daughters.
happy anniversary, happy anniversary to you.
happy anniversary, happy anniversary to you.


Here's the second one:

You are moving on a crowded street
Through various shades of people
In the summers harshest heat
A story in your eye
Well, speak until your minds at ease

Ten years come and gone so fast I might as well be dreaming
Sunny days have burned a path
Across another season
A fortune rises to the sky
Ten years come and gone so fast
You are driving down an empty road
Beside a shady river
When the sky turns dark as stone
The trees begin to shiver
The grace of God is nigh

Ten years come and gone
And that flash has never been forgotten
Sunny days have burned a path
Across another season
How do the powerless survive
Ten years come and gone so fast

And if you look into your future life
Ten years from this question
Do you imagine a familiar light
Burning in the distance
The love that never died

Ten years come and gone so fast
I might as well be dreaming
Sunny days have burned a path
Across another season
Ten years come and gone so fast
Sunny days have burned a path


Ok, so maybe I didn't write these myself, but bonus points if you can tell me where they came from!
