For My Hubby....

~sigh~ 'twas a shitty, shitty day today. And that's putting it lightly. There were some definite highlights such as Ethan's wonderful participation in gymnastics today and a successful "Daddy! Poop!" today as he headed toward the potty (didn't make it but hey, it's success).

Then Glen and I got at each other's throats. It was ugly. We are too much alike. It is almost impossible to argue our differences with a successful debate. We are both stubborn asses and sometimes have that "same fight" over and over. And always, we both feel the same sick, guilty feeling afterwards. It is only because we love each other that we claw each others eyeballs out. I'm kidding.

But here's a small token to him...

(Warning! If you hate mushy stuff, blog on!)

Pastor:
Heather, do you take Glen to be your husband, to live together in the holy bond of married life? Do you promise to honor and uphold him, to join with him in making a home that shall endure in love and peace? Do you pledge to him your complete faithfulness through all the changing experiences of life? And, of your own free will, do you now give yourself to him completely that from this day forth you shall be his alone, so long as you both live?

Heather: “I do”


"I Heather, take you Glen to be my wedded husband. Today as we leave our separate lives behind and begin our walk together as one, I give all my heart to you, promising to love and to always be by your side, in good times and in bad times, in joys and in sorrows. I promise that no matter what may be ahead: I will always love and respect you. God has placed you in my life and he will lead us to grow in faith, to grow in hope and grow in love. Therefore, on this special day, I commit myself to only you, promising you undying love and companionship until the end of our lives."


"With this ring, I thee wed. I seal my promise, to be your faithful and loving wife, all that I am I give to you and all that I have I share with you. May this ring be a symbol of our endless love, and may it always be a reminder to you of how very much I love you. In the name of God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit."

  1. Must be the day for mushy. I love it. Blog on, little friend, blog on... mush and all. I burst into tears almost every time I look at Jen's damned maternity session - the one of Wren's boots in the puddle kills me - so what's a little more mush heaped on?

    My theory is that the spring thaw is making everyone sappy.
