Thanks for being such loyal subscribers and for letting your friends know about it. -- Michael . LIFE IS A COLORING BOOK NBC News titled me "The World’s Most Romantic Man." I don’t really think I deserve the title but it’s fun to have anyway. It would be a great pickup line, but fortunately I am very happily married to a wonderful, beautiful, bright, caring, gentle, kind woman and have no need of pickup lines. One of the reasons many people in the media have said that I am so romantic is that I like to celebrate my wedding anniversary every month. In celebration of my 75th (monthly) anniversary with my wife, I decided to create a gift that would help us reflect back on our first 6 and 1/4 years of marriage. I came up with the idea of creating a coloring book her. I took a sheet of paper and tried to write down the most significant, memorable and happy experiences we had since we were married. I even took out our scrap books to make sure I wasn’t missing any major events. Once I had about 30 ideas I began sketching them on plain white paper. I admit I am not much of an artist but even stick figures can get an idea across. Once I completed doodling all the scenes with pencil, I traced over them with a black felt-tip pen and wrote what the occasion was just in case my drawing was so bad that she wouldn’t be able to decipher the event. I emphasized the childlike look of the book by writing with my left hand. Once all the sketches were complete I drew a cover and then took them to a copy store and had all the pages duplicated onto heavy paper and then bound. I even made an extra in case she wanted one without coloring in it. I gave her our coloring book along with a pack of 64 crayons. The most expensive gift in the world could not have made her happier. I better begin planning for my 100th anniversary! ...................................................................
