So exactly 5 years ago my Mr. and I took a leap o' faith at some small church in Port Harcourt and said 'I do' to the officiating minister in answer to some questions I don't care to remember...
It's been ten whole years and some since we started this journey, not knowing where it would lead...
Now a 4 year old and another on the way later we have come to this point...
It has been fraught with highs and lows, blessings and disappointments, happiness and sadness but on the whole, I thank God for us, we're not perfect but we do try to get by and make the best of 'us' in this imperfect world...

I'm hoping that the next 5 years will be better than the last and that God will meet us at our every point of need...
I earnestly pray that God helps us renew our unity through Christ and that we continuously find satisfaction in one another.
I pray for the grace to bear each other's weaknesses and the compassion to help each other out in times of need.
I also pray to our Father in heaven to equip us with every necessity to raise our children to His glory...

This is my thanks giving....please join us in our prayers...For everyone out there who is seeking for a life time partner, fruit of the womb or any other blessing, I pray that God will show you His face and you will have cause to sing a new song this year.

God bless you!

Sistah gurl, all those ups and downs
are what makes a marriage stronger
When you go through trials
and u stick together
until they turn to triumphs
U give thanks because that's all a successful union is.

I thank God for you. The years to come will be better by his grace
