On the eve of my 22nd Birthday, there wasn’t a happier man on this earth than me. Thanks for saying “yes” and here’s to a Wonderful and Glorious future, together.

A Happy Birthday
Aww...what a romantic! Still so much I'm still finding out for the first time - I never knew Dad proposed to Mum the day before his 22nd Birthday. That could have been a miserable Birthday had Mum have said 'no'....but lucky for all of us she didn't!
ReplyDeleteThat autograph book holds some wonderful information, I'm so glad Mum obviously treasured it well.
