It was 15 years ago today on a clear, sunny, crisp day in Boston. The wedding took place in Lindsey Chapel, part of Boston’s Emmanuel Episcopal Church on Newbury Street.
Superstitious animal that I am, I’m hesitant to claim any sort of victory; as we know, life is best lived one day at a time. But 15 years of happiness together must be a big number. Meeting each other and partnering up with my Caroline marks for me the beginning of my adult life. It’s all I ever wanted; the reason for hoisting my flag and putting myself before this world. Our love is where I live and where we raise our boys. I don’t really exist apart from us. And I can’t believe my luck…
