    Me and my husband just got the news that our daughters brain damage is so bad from having leukemia when she was a baby and went without oxygen for a time when she was so so sick that she will never be able to be independent. So many men have walked out on me in my life and have let me down but I know her father will never leave her side. I am so thankful for that and my mind went to this song today. Baby, thank you for always being there for our family. We will get through this together somehow, some way for our beautiful daughter. This song is my heart today. IOU! I love you

    Driving to Corpus Christi, Texas from Galveston to look for a home. Coast Guard was transferring us there, and listening to Lee Greenwood, saw an exit sign. Greenwood exit, we exited, drove one mile turned left on Triple Crown, saw our dream home! Bought it. Owned it 31 years. Many trials through those years, but I will never forget how we were supernaturally lead to THAT home. It still stands, in perfect condition, as we rehabbed it completely before we sold it. God is good, all the time.

I.O.U. was the first and most important one on the list. It put to words how I feel about our relationship. If I spent every minute of every day for the rest of my life paying her back for all that she's done for me and lived a long life, I'd still die indebted man.. I'm working on "The 35 Songs That Remind Me of My Sweetie" for our 35th anniversary in 13 months. Adoration is too weak a word for how I feel about this woman.

    This is our song: Richard & Kimberly married September 24, 1983. We inscribed IOU in our wedding bands; I've never taken mine off. After 27 years he still makes me feel like a bride! IOU, honey! You are the best man I've ever met. "Thank You" doesn't begin to cover how much I appreciate you and our love & life together. IOU
