Journaling:

He was a cop, I a student. We’d met before but on this night

we were with friends at a local haunt. When “Strangers In

The Night” began playing, he asked me to dance. Something

about that song, about his smile, about his gorgeous eyes,

set me atwitter. A friend and I were leaving early the next

morning to drive to North Carolina. I couldn’t forget the

impact that dance had on me. At 4:30 AM, I demanded we drive

by his home before leaving for our own journey and left a

note on his car windshield: “Stranger, call me when I’m back in

two weeks” with my phone number. He did and within

eight months we were married.



We just celebrated our 51st anniversary, and I still get

butterflies and goosebumps when I hear that song. We’ve

been known to stop cleaning the garage and dance to

it in the driveway; stop pulling weeds and dance in the

garden; and sing-along while riding in the car. Thank you

Frank for being a very important part of my history!

      what a truly beautiful page! I love the photo of you and your sweet husband from that day, the memory of the Frank Sinatra song and what a special love story! I love it and so glad you documented it too! I love the clean composition and the perfect balance on the page. Just perfection!! I love the pop of color from the red heart in your sweet little cluster of elements too! Thank you for playing along with the July journaling challenge. Happy 51st anniversary!!
