I (Oren's Mom) found this poem on another webpage. I emailed the person and asked if I could use it here. They said the poem wasn't theirs but the picture was, so it is linked to the site where I found it.
My parents meet when they
worked at Arby's together. My mom was a front counter
worker and my dad was the person that put the
sandwhiches together. Their first date was the day
after Father's Day 1996. On October 29th, 1996 they
got married. My mom was 19 and my dad was 22. The
wedding was at the Hall of Justice in Kelso,
Washington. There was mostly family there, with a few
friends. After the ceremony they all went to Izzy's
Pizza and Buffet. It wasn't fancy, but all the family
was together so it didn't matter. My parents don't work at
Arby's anymore. My dad is a millwright at a pallet mill. My mom stays
home and takes care of me, which is a full time job
in itself. My dad likes to go fishing and
as soon as I am old enough he is going to take me
with him. He has all sorts of plans of things that we
can do together. He said that we are going to go
fishing, camping, and all sorts of outdoor things. Mom thinks that I need to
learn to cook and bake so that when I get older and
live by myself (a long time from now) I won't have to
eat chili and soup all the time. Since we live in a place where my mom can't have a flower garden she has a Spirit Flower Garden instead. There are a lot of pretty flowers there. She also has just started a collection of snowglobes. If you want to send her one or know of a good site please email her.

They started dating after my dad fell off his bicycle
and broke his wrist. Before he did that they usually
worked opposite shifts so it was hard to do anything
together. Once he couldn't work they could go and do
stuff when Mom was off work.
