LET ME COUNT THE WAYS

submitted by: Charlene Tamura

I have been giving my husband the traditional anniversary gifts since we got married 6 years ago. Here are the things I have given him:

1 Paper – I wrote out our vows in calligraphy and framed them
2 Cotton – I cross-stitched the Samurai motto in Japanese characters
(my husband is half Japanese and is descended from a Samurai family)
3 Leather – A baseball glove
4 Flowers – A rose bush for our garden
5 Wood – I can’t remember!
6 Iron – An edger tool for the garden. This probably wasn’t
technically iron, but it was at least metal!
