In my grandparents’ Connecticut backyard thirty-six years ago, my parents were married amidst the fall colors. My uncle sang this song during the ceremony:
I can’t help but think of music when I think of my folks. PPM, Harry Chapin, John Denver, the Beatles, Babs, Sting. Think of your favorite love song and sing along…
Happy anniversary, Mum and Dad. May the years amble by gently with you and may you meet any challenges together, hand in hand.
you’re a great daughter for remembering. my mom and her hubby got married a year ago yesterday and i forgot like a complete dummy 🙁
very cute photo, btw!

And I love that song. One of my friends had her younger brother (he was 16 at the time? 17, maybe) sing that at her wedding – it was very sweet.
