Although it does not feel like it, Nine years ago today I married my best friend and my love, Christopher. As I came down the "aisle" on my father's arm, my crazy friends improvised a wonderful, terrible a Capella version of the Wedding March from Lohengrin ( commonly known as "Here comes the Bride") It made me laugh and I joyfully joined Chris to say our vows, which were unique, to say the least, as my friend performing the ceremony winged it.
It was a wonderful day.
It does not seem like nine years, but there has been so much that has happened. Thank you, Chris for standing at my side through everything. I could not have made it through some of this without you. You are the most amazing person and I am proud to be your wife. You calm my heart when you hold my hand.
It's been a wonderful journey. You are my "Happily Ever After" and I love you.
I saw some of the pictures - Robyn, you had to prove to me that you were, indeed, wearing matching peep-toed pumps (not matching each other, although I believe they did, but matching your lovely gown!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat for your father to walk you down the "aisle" towards CHRIS! I think everyone was happy - nine years? Really? Sometimes, it seems like, "Oh, yeah, I remember nine yearsa go....other times - naaaaaah, must have been three, maybe four." As a librarian, let me remind you that the NINTH anniversary is traditionally pottery or willow.......................the modern is LEATHER! You kids choose - whoo hoo!
