Our 9th Wedding Anniversary (19 Nov 2013)

How time flies. We dated for 2  years before deciding to get married. Our customary was held on 19 Nov 2004. We will be celebrating our 9th year wedding anniversary tomorrow...Well, I'm proud to say we survived first 7 years of itch. Let's hope for many many years of happiness and blessings ahead. 

Looking back....I dug out some of our ROM & wedding photos. I miss those days when we were young and just got married.

This is the link to the video which I created 2 years ago as a gift to my husband on our 7th anniversary.

What is marriage to me? Marriage to me means lifelong commitments, no backing out, accepting the person for who he is and learning how to communicate with patience. We do have arguments and we do fight. But at the end of the day, we will compromise. 

Both of us come from different backgrounds. We are 2 individuals who met and fell in love. When we decided to get married, it means remaining faithful and loving, respect each other, stick together in hardship and fortune, be an understanding husband or wife till the end of our life.

Remembering our wedding vows is very important because it's our promise to each other in the marriage:-

To Bridegroom 
Will you, Toh Hiap Aik take this woman Lek Pay Yan to be your wedded wife, to live together in the legal estate of matrimony? Will you love her, comfort her, honour and keep her in sickness and in health and forsaking all others, be faithful to her, so long as you both shall live? 
Answer: I will 

To Bride 
Will you, Lek Pay Yan take this man Toh Hiap Aik to be your wedded husband, to live together in the legal estate of matrimony? Will you love him, comfort him, honour and keep him in sickness and in health and forsaking all others, be faithful to him, so long as you both shall live? 
Answer: I will 

I always remembered these words which I recite in the eyes of law. And it's these words that keeps me going when we have heated arguments...Till now, I believe I am still learning how to be a good wife. Hehehe :D

Last but not least, just want to wish my hubby:-

A Happy 9th Wedding Anniversary!!!
