nine years

You have taught me many things.

I've seen how you handle problems, pressures and stress

yet do not crumble under it.

I've seen how you silently sacrifice for the family.

You give without grudge.

You toil without complaints.

You're always patient with the kids.

With me.

You have taught me how to treat others.

You befriend those who are rejects, outcasts and unpopular.

You willingly lend a listening ear to their problems.

And more than just a listening ear.

They look to you as a great friend, a brother.

You are known to be a faithful friend.

And I am so blessed to be your wife.

Thanks for walking life togther with me.

As what I've always said,

"I want to grow old together with you."

Here's to many more beautiful years ahead.

HAPPY 9th ANNIVERSARY,

MY DEAREST!
