8 years Anniversary

This post is long overdue, but better late than never!

To and for my dearest honey…

We’ve known each other for 10 years now (from summer of 2006 in Beijing!) and married for 8 (July 12, 2008).
And now after 5 homes, 4 churches, 3 countries and 2 kids; you are still my 1 and only.

You said the other day that “if you knew what I was like, you would not have married me”.

Although I wish you’d make me breakfast when I’m late,
Pray for me and show more empathy when I’m sick,
Be more proactive in life and resolving conflicts,
Give me more hugs and kisses,
And watch less TV.

I say “I knew you and continue to know you. I would still make the same choice today”.

I see a man who is always trying,
To be better today than yesterday,
I can’t wait for God to unfold our story,
There’s no one else who knows and sees me like you do,
We still have a world to see and many more dreams to fulfill,
And I want to be beside you on this journey and in eternity!

Eight years ago
I am married to my best friend
God’s grace through and through
Happy and hard days
Times of joy and sorrow, peace and conflict

Your perfections and imperfections
Everything about you is God’s gift to me
As iron sharpens iron, u
R His rod to protect and discipline me
Surely I am the blessed one to be married to you!

I love you, hunny honey!
