on the eve of our anniversary

On this night six years ago, the eve of our wedding, I didn't foresee snuggling three bambini for bedtime stories while the eldest played one last game of checkers for the day with his dad.  As I wrote, though, in the column that ran in the diocesan newspaper the day after we got married, the care of these children is part of the "shared vocation to which God has called [us] -- the one which He has seen fit to will for us so that we may help each other prepare to meet Him at the end of our earthly lives."

For the call to this vocation and the myriad blessings of this life together, I am profoundly and humbly grateful.
