Wedding Bells

For those that do not know yet, my Andrew and sweet Chelsea are getting married. They have decided to have their ceremony on October 22, 2011. I am thrilled. I could not hand pick a better suited person for each of them. I realize they are young, but who cares, really? They have as good a shot as any. Hell, a better shot than me.

Marriage is an interesting concept. The notarized piece of paper means nothing to me except for the fact that you have a legal contract with someone. Whatever. I have a legal contract with the IRS, too. Marriage is more about the heart and mind. It's about the integrity of committing to this other human being forever. Such great intent! It's a covenant. A sacred promise to treat someone with love and respect. To walk through life with someone. To partner up.

And then the children come along. That is another story. For now, I will be so happy for Andrew and my little Chelsea. It gives me hope to see their optimism and love. I hope they soar. What could be better than that?
