It's been 3 years since we made our vows to each other. Many things have changed over the years, one thing for sure, our sizes! and of course an addition of Janice to our lives, and because of that, each day continues to evolve as we learn to adapt and grow. Growing as parents and as the best cheerleader, friend and lover towards each other.
Marriage is exciting. Like an adventure ride. I no longer need anything else to feed into my adrenalin, being a wife and a mother is more than adequate. In fact some sedatives occasionally could be helpful :) 3 years, we have figured each others' strengths and weakness, sometimes applauding our differences and of course there will be times when we had many hair pulling frustrating occasions. Through it all, I am glad to say love has been deepened and bond strengthened. I'd never want this journey to be with another because despite our imperfections, we are perfect for each other.
3 years. Very insignificant as I chatted with my colleague who celebrated her 30th anniversary. I wonder how we'd be like then. We both share the sentiments of how we hope to be like, and I feel terribly loved to know that we're walking there hand in hand.
A good laugh, a good cry, a friendly hug, a passionate time. Words of kindness, words of love. a tight squeeze of the hand, a hug.These are some of my favorite things in the marriage. Most of all, I love the husband because without him, all these would be some random ingredients, but he made it come to reality for me, and to that I am super blessed.
Thank you dear, for you have been so loving and so giving. Thank you for trying in the most impossible time, thank you for standing by. Thank you for bringing me that bottle of water each night no matter how sleepy you are. Thank you for staying up so that I can fall asleep before the symphony starts, and for showering earlier in the morning so that I could sleep in that teeny bit more.Thank you for accepting me and because of that, it's given me so much strength to face what's ahead.
One of the biggest thing I've learnt is to love with God's love and to give with God's strength. May I continue to honour God and this marriage (and family) through LOVING in His way:
Love is patient, Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
Oh, we celebrated the day in such a relaxing way. Dropped Janice off at Childcare, we headed for a leisurely breakfast. Shopped around, had a massage (for the 1st time in my life), dinner and back. Nice, such days are rare when you have a kid! :)
