In love's gentle embrace, where time's woven thread, Kari stands by my side, a beacon deeply fed. For twenty-five years, our hearts have entwined, Crafting whispers of warmth, both tender and kind. On each Valentine's morn, her smile lights the way, A testament of devotion, like the dawn's gentle sway. Through life's twists and turns, as wheels gently glide, Her strength knows no boundaries, her love an endless tide. With four kids in our fold, their laughter fills the air, A homeschool mom's patience, tender and rare. Teaching by heart, with wisdom she sows, In a garden of knowledge, their spirits she grows. Kari, my treasure, in you I've found gold, In a tapestry of memories, our love never grows old.
