Nine years and counting! Happy anniversary, Meredith!

I love my wife – she is pretty and smart and fun to be with. We share the same sense of humor, and we don’t share the same set of things that irritate us. She has introduced me to international travel, and has greatly deepened my appreciation for Shakespeare and other plays. Mer loves the music that I love, and she loves going to see live music. She sings beautifully. She is a competitive game player, so when I do manage to beat her, I know I’ve earned it. She loves words and delights in the clever use of them. She works hard and cares deeply about her students. She loves God and helps me to be a better person because of it.

And, she loves me. What a great wife!
