Once upon a time I was nineteen and madly in love. That was great. Today I celebrate my nineteenth wedding anniversary. I’m still in love. That’s even better. Come wish me and my sweet husband a happy anniversary! 🆒 It’s also really freaking scary how old I am. I was a child bride, I tell you, a child bride! ---

Massive congrats! My marriage turned 25 years old a few weeks ago. Consider the fact that we dated 6 years before that and I have been together with my wife for waaaay longer than not. ---

Um muito feliz aniversário !!! ( That is Portuguese ) Though you did not ask, I will point out that “cansado” is Portuguese for tired and “casado” is Portuguese for married. The difference is subtle but profound…😃
