wedding, Anne Butera, Matthias Minnig

15 years ago today Matthias and I got married. I am grateful every day to have him in my life. To share our joys and challenges. He's my best friend, my partner in crime. Relationships are hard, but I'm glad we've stuck it out, stubborn as we both are.

Today Matthias is undergoing surgery. He's in the best possible hands and this will be the last (we hope) treatment to cure him of cancer.

I think the date is propitious.

It will be quiet in this space for a bit, but I'll be back with my latest Artist Interview next Friday.

Until then, wishing you joy. Please remember to take time today (and everyday) to be grateful for life's magic, beauty and joy and to love the ones you're with.
