The other day Denver came home from school and announced that Lexi wanted to marry him. "Oh," I said. "What do you think about that?"
Denver shrugged his shoulders and then stated, "Lexi's mom says she has to marry someone Jewish."
To which I replied, "Do you want to marry Lexi? You'd have to become Jewish."
Denver pondered for a bit, watching cars drive past our front window. And then he said, "Maybe."
Maybe he wants to marry her or maybe he wants to be Jewish--I don't know. Maybe both. Either way I've heard rumors that Lexi is pretty darn cute and Denver seems to have a pretty big crush on her. Speaking of marriage and crushes, did you know Mark and I have been married for eleven years today. Yeah, it's true. And guess who forgot. That would be me. But the good news is, I haven't forgotten how much I love him or how good the past eleven years have been. And I also haven't forgotten what religion I am or that I didn't have to become Jewish to marry him. And just the fact that I remember that much is a real, honest-to-goodness miracle. I love you Mark and Happy Anniversary.
