Today's my parents' 37th Wedding Anniversary. And they are still very much in lurve with each other.

Mom and dad, thanks for :

- sticking by each other even when times are tough (and boy, can they be really rough sometimes!)

- having and raising all four of us like it was no sweat at all! Well, not exactly, but you know what I mean

- loving to do almost everything together. I guess it would have been traumatizing for us kids if you lead separate lives or if you made one of us as your substitute partner because you can't communicate with each other

- laughing with each other, even at the simplest and zaniest things. Of course, there are some family jokes which we kids would much prefer to be buried and forgotten but hey, if those moments make you guys laugh, we'll just make a disappearing trick for that moment and leave you two to laugh together

- sitting in the dark together. Many a time, I've come back from work only to find the two of you sitting in companionate silence in the living room - in total darkness. It looks awfully romantic and sweet but hmmm, have yet to try that one out myself to know for sure

And most of all, thank you that because of your great marriage, I can have confidence that marriages that last this long are not boring and most definitely not a living hell.

Happy anniversary, you two!
