Chris

I stopped at the store to buy you a bouquet
What I found is that it had a whole lot to say
The flowers each stood for a part of our life
And they were meant for you, my beautiful wife

The yellow one stands for a little girl we both know
She's pretty and sweet and always ready to go
She sings little girl songs and has beautiful dark hair
God gave us an angel for our hearts to share

The white rose represents the little boy in our home
There are days that I know he won't leave you alone
He's happy and smart and full of such joy
We're lucky to be blessed with such a sweet boy

The red one's a sign of the love that WE share
Over time we have proven just how much we care
We love in the ways that makes others just wish
And hope for each other with a smile and a kiss

That ribbon that holds the bouquet in a bunch
I didn't get it at first, yet it means so much
It stands for your love in our home every day
As the center of our family in every way

This bouquet in the store, I'll just have to get
The best part of this is it isn't done yet
There are more flowers to add, more times to have fun
More nights full of laughter, and more days full of sun

So the next time I bring flowers, I hope that you know
Your love means much more to me than I could ever show

A rose for every year,
many smiles for every tear
Way more of the first than ever of the latter
What's deep in our hearts is all that really matters

We've learned a lot, yet still a lot to learn
For that "smile in your eyes" my heart still yearns
Keep giving me a chance to show you my love
We've always found a way to rise above

We know what we have and we've made it this far
We often say to each other just how lucky we are
To have what we have when we look in their eyes
We both know we've been given the ultimate prize

A family who cares and can say how they feel
There is no doubt this family is real
It's a life full of hustle that is crazy sometimes
But I can honestly say these are the "BEST of times"

I'd do it again in a minute, no doubt
You have in your heart what I can't live without
These last 15 years have been so special to me
I think I see now what everyone else can see

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
