the 4th of March Riaan and I celebrated our 3rd Wedding Anniversary.. A whole three years... And whilst it may not seem like such a
long time, to us and with everything that we have been through, it means so much.
Riaan decided to take me away for the weekend on our first holiday since our honeymoon and when I say it was overdue, then it was just that...Overdue..
We spent the weekend at Sun City and it was awesome. No phones, no worries, no "shop talk"... just me and him... I came back from there so refreshed and ready... ready to face challenges and hard times because if the weekend away taught me anything, it was this... Life is always going to throw us curveballs and there will always be rain, sometimes thunder storms too, but as long as we remember how much we love and adore each other and how much the life that we have means to us... it is so worth it and it means everything...
And I am hoping that we will have many, many more.....
Yay Ali! Sometimes, a little quality time with the family makes everything all better, doesn't it? At least manageable.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 3 years! That is a milestone all in itself. Therse days, most marriages don't even make it that far. It will be 12 years for me in July. Somedays, I have no idea why I've been with a jobless, lazy man for so many years. Other days, I just know that it's because I love him with all of my heart and that should be enough. Random ... sorry :)
I'm so glad that you had a wonderful weekend! Just know that it is well-deserved and you should definitely have more of them, more often.
Smiles,
Angie
Thank you for the poem Ali ... you hit the nail on the head with that one. I'm a better person for having read that. Thanks for sharing!
