Vows

For the record, and in case I lose the data on my iPhone (yes, my vows were on my iPhone...), I thought it best to put what I said to my amazing husband on the day we renewed our vows, and partook of the Sacrament of Marriage. 

"It's been 10 years since you and I began this journey of 'us'. It's been 10 years of incredible agony, an abundance of miracles, intense bouts of laughter, and the greatest love I've ever known. You are my human example of Agape love. You have displayed for my eyes Christ's strength, gentleness, and mercy. You have taught me how to be led, and have been God's tool for an incredible amount of healing to my weary heart.
You quite simply, are amazing; beyond my ability to describe. You are the only person who renders me without words, and without jokes. You give me goosebumps with every touch. You make my heart flutter with every smile. You comfort my spirit just by being near me, and I love you so much.

Thank you for taking on the challenge of this crazy chick and being happy about it. Thank you for thinking I'm the funniest person ever. Thank you for being stronger than I am.

I can't wait to see what will happen as we continue to grow old together. I love you."

And yes, I actually cried at this ceremony. And no, I wasn't trying to figure a way of escape at this one either. And yes, it was everything that I imagined my "wedding" would be.
