Twenty-Five Years, One Heart

For Susan

Susan, twenty-five years ago we started out in that tiny first apartment, with barely enough room to turn around and more dreams than furniture. Somehow we built a whole life from there — raising two beautiful kids, wandering the streets of Italy together, laughing our way through every ordinary and extraordinary day. Through all of it, one thing has never changed: I still reach for your hand, and you're still holding mine. You are my home, my adventure, and my greatest love. Here's to us, always. Happy 25th anniversary, my love. — Mark
