Marriage is much more than

vows and a ring ~ more than

a toast & a special song to sing ~

Marriage is giving much more

than you take ~ committing one's

life to each other thru mistakes each will make.

Thru misunderstandings, thru sunshine,

and rain ~ thru good times & bad ~

Thru heartaches and pain.

Marriage means giving your hearts

to each other ~ to cherish as a treasure ~

hold tenderly but never smother.

Marriage is sharing life's foibles and

thrills ~ not an ongoing competition ~

nor a battle of wills.

BUT ~ a beautiful blending of two

lives as one ~ complimenting each other ~

filling needs ~ having fun !

Marriage is seeing your sweet dreams

come true ~ And, this is the prayer ~

daddy and I pray for you !
