Happy Christmas FSU Style - 3 Years
« on: January 07, 2008, 07:03:59 AM »
 Well folks, today is our 3rd Anniversary and all I can say is that I am one fantastically lucky SOB. Never in my life did I expect (or could I have asked for) a better partner than Elena.

 Sure, there have been difficulties at times (especially dealing with some of the USCIS BS) but all the things that we have gone through together has only made us closer and fused us into a true partnership.

 Of course the fact that she puts up with me is the biggest part of our success so far...  :D

Ken, congrats to you and Elena.  You are both very lucky, and I know you are also very lucky to have such a great son.

Marina and I wish you the very best in 2008!

Here's hoping that Elena can "put up" with you one more year!  ;D  LOL

And Merry Christmas to you guys, on this 7th day of January.  Personally, I love Christmas coming a week after New Years.  It makes it more special.

Belated congratulations Ken. I wish you and your family many years of happiness, may the years ahead be as Department of Homeland Security issues-free as possible .

P.S. I enjoy reading your enjoyable and thoughtful posts.

P.S.S.  Does being married longer than 0 to 2 years officially make one an OMB??  Maybe a poll should be started...
