It was a special day not only because it was my amazing nan's 81st birthday but it was also nan and pop's 60th wedding anniversary. 60 years ago on nan's 21st birthday they married, so beautiful.
I read the card which nan had written to pop, the first line read, "to my soul mate". Tears welled up immediately. As i read on i was overwhelmed with the love that my nan still has for my pop after 60 years of marriage.
"Thank you for being my husband, thank you for being my lover, thank you for being my friend"- Nan
Nan and pop met on a train over 60 years ago, nan was engaged to someone else. Pop said to me yesterday, "imagine if i decided to go the other way on the train that day, i would never have met your nan". However fate was working its magic that day, and they did meet, and are still together and happy 60 years later.
Their marriage is such an achievement and inspiration to me. I know i've found my soul mate, we now share a beautiful baby boy together and i look forward to celebrating our 60th wedding anniversary together one day.
"I love you as much today as i did 60 years ago, when you stole my heart away" - Nan
