Tommorrow

Tomorrow is Bern's birthday.

For 15 days, until my birthday, she is only 2 years younger than me!

We were high school sweethearts. I met her because I thought I might need a foreign language for some of the colleges I was applying to.

But it was Latin 1. I was a senior and she was a freshman but both in the same class.

Latin was the only foreign language offered at our little high school

I went to college and three years later she joined me at WVU.

I then went to Harvard Divinity School and after a year came home and we were married. She went to college in Boston the next year.

Then we moved back to Morgantown and I was a social worker while she finished college.

That was a long time ago.

54 years, believe it or not!

Two kids and four grandkids later, here we are.

I love her so, so much.

She is my wife and she is my life.

Happy birthday, Bern....

About Me

some ponderings by an aging white man who is an Episcopal priest in Connecticut. Now retired but still working and still wondering what it all means...all of it.
