6 years + 2 days and counting…
That is how long I’ve been officially married to Audrey. While some would expect to read a blog about how much I love my wife and all that shit ass mushy stuff, to me is just public declaration to make one look good and the good husbandly thing to do. However, I am not such a person. I am flawed as fuck. So it’s already amazing that she still steadfast and loyal to me.
What I really want to talk about is the effect it has on me. A friend just wished me happy anniversary and asked me how I felt after 6 years of marriage. Without much thought, the first thing that came to mind was ‘very humbling’. She couldn’t agree more. So I told Audrey about it. First thing she asked me was ‘Why so humbling?’ Well it has been humbling because I have bared my soul to this person, she knows all my weaknesses and flaws and yet she stands by me through thick & thin. She helps me make amazing decisions that enrich our lives and keep the family stable. She is not just my wife she is a great friend that will not hesitate to gets her hands dirty to fix something that I might’ve screwed up. So yeah… humbling is definitely the word to use. After having her by my side for so long I find myself in a position where I am amazed at how I have stayed afloat for so long without her in my life.
So anyways… we had a fantastic weekend of just eating our hearts out to celebrate 6 roller coaster years of fun and tears. We had CPK for Saturday lunch we shared this amazing green curry chicken pasta & wild mushroom pizza that was just too awesome for words. For dinner we went to Pasta Zanmai this Jap Italiano fusion place that has become our latest favorite haunt. I had the Hamburg set that made my toes curl and Audrey had Beef Katsu curry rice. The next day we went Lemon garden at Shangri-la for buffet and pigged out big time. However on a slightly sour note I think I ate a bad fruit or something so I had a bit of the runs after that. But after popping some Chinese miracle pills (poh chai yuen) we were off to Nagomi for some shabu-shabu loving. I had duck while Audrey had chicken. Yes it’s all about food for our family and that is how we celebrate such amazing events in our lives.
Did I forget to mention we had Shane with us the entire time? It is not our intention to leave our son out of anything. Since our lives do revolve around him, he has been a very good boy by sleeping through the past couple of nights. What a nice gesture from him to us.
