Our 5th Wedding Anniversary

Duuh, senengnya ... Hari ini Mommy and Daddy ngerayain 5th Wedding Anniversary. Ngga kerasa yah tau2 udah 5 taun ... tadinya Mommy Daddy berdua aja, sekarang udah bertiga, udah ada Oliver ... (eh, sebenernya berlima sih sama Frisko and Kiki juga... sampe kelupaan, sorry yah Frisko Kiki).

Thank you God for all Your love and blessings. In the past five years, we have been really blessed. You've given us strength to work together in handling all those challenges, even the hardest ones. It's not an easy 5 years ... there were times when we were in the darkness, in tears. But You led us back and made our love even stronger ... All those hard times that we experienced together have made us much even closer together and appreciate each other more ...

Oh iya, THANKS MUCH buat semua yang udah kasih met anniversary buat kita, udah doain kita ... doain yah mudah2an kita bisa heppi2 dan mesra terus sampe kakek nenek, sampe nungguin Oliver married, punya anak, sampe anak Oliver gede2 juga ... (hihihi, masih lama kali yah ...)

Ini ada sedikit kenang2an dari 5 tahun yang lalu ... when it was all started ...

And this is a little poem for you yank ...

I will stay in love with you forever...

How can I stay in love
with you forever?
How can we make our relationship into
a lifetime of sharing and joy?

In order to stay in love forever
I must first find the right person to love
and I have, in you

In order to stay in love forever
we both must understand each other
and ourselves
and we must be completely honest
with each other at all times
We both must have our own goals and interests
and actively pursue them
We both must have complete freedom of thought
and we must encourage each other
to follow our dreams
We must always be fair, kind and supportive
of each other
We must dedicate ourselves to being
equal partners in all that we feel
and in all that we do
We must promise each other that
we will always create time
to just appreciate each other and our love
and that we will never be lazy
and take our love for granted

In order for me to stay in love
with you forever
and have a relationship that is
a lifetime of sharing and loving
I must really pledge myself
to this wonderful commitment
and I must really want to stay in love
with you forever
and I do

-Poem by Susan Polis Schut
