For my 22nd wedding anniversary, I determined that I would write my wife Sheila twenty-two___1_ _ to describe my love to her. I also decided that I would have a unique ___2__ to give her a great surprise.

I started out months __3__, writing poems and _ _4_ _ with my wife’s friends and got their help in making cards for each of the twenty-two poems.

Had I known how ___5 __ it was to make twenty-two cards for twenty-two poems, I might have ___6 _ a different idea. ___7__, by the time I was about to __ 8 __, I was encouraged by our __ 9 __, so I kept on the task.

Some good friends __ 10 __ to host the party at their house. The question then was how to get my wife to the party without rasing her ___11__. I told my wife for our anniversary I would make a(n)__ 12 _ at a nice restaurant, so she didn’t have to _ 13 __ anything. I had prearranged with the party host to call me before the party to say that he really needed to get back a __ 14 __ that I had borrowed. In my wife’s __15 __, I told him that we were heading out to dinner and could drop the book off on our way.

Finally, when we arrived at the ___16__, I suggested that perhaps Sheila should accompany me to the door and say a quick __ 17 __. We stepped into the house where the __ 18 __ happened. One at a time, twenty-one of Sheila’s friends presented her with a card and rose. Then, I __ 19 __ a poem titled ＂Pure Luck＂. I wanted __20__ to get it right — and I did!
