My Man, ..Happy Anniversary
My husband, when he was still my boy friend once asked me about my father who passed away long time ago. I told him that my father was such a good father, he was my 1st man in my life. My father had many meaningful qualities. I talked to my father alot, about anything...the funniest thing that I always remember is I had to explain to him why I put 'white face masks' on my face almost every Sunday afternoon when I was in highschool (ha..ha..because I want to have flawless skin like a princess). I even talked about the boy next door..(you know being 15 years old girl sometimes wasn't easy..!). For most of my life I loved him very much.
Why I'm writing about my father, well, today November 19th is our anniversary, my husband has to go on trip, this is the first time he's not at home on our anniversary, his schedule is pretty tight and I thought is better, rather than he has to go a day after Thanksgiving Day. We had a little celebration yesterday, no picture though, because we plan to have something more special on Sunday. We had 'Pecking Duck' for dinner, we ate the duck with a bowl of plum sauce, thanks to my crock pot, which working hard while I did something else and thanks to Stephanie O'dea, who has this recipe. The result was excellent, pretty duck and was worthy with 8 hours inside the crock pot, even my daughter enjoy it alot.
Now, back to my lovely husband who proposed me in Jimbaran, Bali...this blog isn't just praising a man who found me and brought me to America and became my husband. There's no perfect man or perfect husband, and we keep learning to each other, and we try to fall in love to each other again and again. I think that's the most important to make marriage work.
I'm so damn lucky to have a happy childhood, seeing male/female relationship should look like in my parent's life. Well, growing up, I made mistake ( I don't know if this was a mistake of fate), I always had boyfriend then broken heart again and again. There's a day that I was really tired looking for a 'man', maybe there's no Mr. Right out there for me, maybe there's no man who's nice like my father. Until then I met my husband, a man out there who asked about my late father.
One of the things that makes me fall in love with my husband again and again is seeing the father that he is. I think little Grace is so smart, confident, secure, adored and brave. My husband and our daughter have such a special relationship. After working 8 hours sometimes more, arrived home, he always have time to listen to Grace's story, they played hide and seek, and Grace will say '..bye mom..!'..so happy that she'll play with her lovely daddy. I can say that he is totally involved, dedicated and try to available to her in many ways. I hope someday my daughter will have a feeling that her daddy is his 1st man in her live. I am excited to see what kind of young woman my little girl will grow up to be. She know what's is like to be loved and to love a man.
I found an anniversary card for me this morning after my husband left, I smile and happy that I am still his Princess eventhough we have another cute little Princess in our house. Thank you God..!..and Happy Anniversary my man, my love..!
