Love Letter to my Bride, 2009

Lucy bought this notebook for us to write a letter in to each other every year near our anniversary.   If you got to this page then you have the special honour (or not) of reading my draft of what I'm gonna write to her for December 17th, 2009:

Lucy, you know you're a princess and you've often said I rescued you when I married you.  Here's a little story I made up of us in an alternate life.  Don't worry, I'm not gonna make you change your life, I'm just using this as a creative way to say how I love you!

Cade UK 2009 Christmas Letter

What's happened in 2009? So much! 

This is the year that all three of The Boys started playing for football teams (weekends are busy in a whole new way). This is the year that Ian reached the milestone where he cycles to school without his Mum trailing behind (which means more independence for both of them!).  Of course this is the year when Simon moved up to Secondary School and Lucy's counting down the years until our time at Mayfield Primary ends (It'll be 11 years when Ian finishes in 2011).  The annual Summer Fayre and International Evening were intense but fun--as always.
