memawfan me 1st please's blog: "Special occasion"

Today I had the pleasure of preforming the wedding ceremony of a friend. Her second. A much better man who loves her and loves her 10yr old son and even thinks she is fun. She is smiling all the time. Giggling now and then. And doesn't even care if her EX falls off the face of the earth. As long as he doesn't neglect or abuse his son, she can tolerate him. I got to see the look in both their eyes as they said they would love and protect and honor and forgive each other. I got ordained as a sarcastic response to a co-worker that said all internet minister are snake oil salesmen. I dressed up in a collar and brought a copy of the Farmers Almanac to carry instead of a bible. It was a fun Halloween watching the look slowly change on her face as I showed her the ordination documents that I printed off and the laws governing ministers in our state. And I was all legit. I have preformed 2 ceremonies in the last 2 years. Both as gifts to the couples so they had one less expense to worry about. I think I will try to make this a legit money making side line. This could be fun!!!

Today Aug 14, 2007 is my son's birthday. My baby is a man. A very good man. He has a new wife(old girlfriend) they have 3 kids,a house and mortgage, a dog, a camper on a lake for getaways,4 wheelers to get into serious fun, and the whole future ahead of him. He has his faults but compared to some of my friends kids,he is a gem. He helps me out with house repairs and yard work and he helps me move STUFF. Even when it is out of his way to get here. I think I got very very lucky. And today when I see him I will get very mushy and hug him and tell him just that. Today is a good day!!!
