On Thursday, December 17, my husband and I will celebrate 21 years of marriage.
In author interviews, I often get asked some variation of the question, “Who has had the greatest impact on your life?” My answer is always Bob Salerni.
He taught me to believe in myself. He taught me to ski. He thinks I’m pretty. He’s the father of my two beautiful daughters. He has taken me on many adventures around the world (and we have more planned). I would not be a published author without his encouragement, support, and sometimes outright pushing. He’s also the one who convinced me to retire from teaching when everything I loved about the job had been stripped away. He reads everything I write.
A picture is worth a thousand words … so thank you, Bob, for 21 wonderful years. These are just a small sample of our adventures together.

I love you, sweetheart! Looking forward to the next 21 years!
Your husband sounds like a gem. Happy Anniversary!
That’s awesome – happy anniversary! My marriage passed the drinking age a while ago but my wife is still my best friend and greatest support.
Woot woot! Congrats! My anniversary is on the 16th (though it’s only 9 years for us) so we’re almost anniversary buddies!
Aw, look at that cute couple on the ski trip. You guys really have done a lot! It must have been a great journey. And there’s still more to come, right? 🙂
Congrats! My husband and I are sitting right in the same section of the anniversary ballpark. Celebrate!
Congrats. I hope you have many more years together. 🙂
