And it hit me. This was it. My dad was strolling as much as me in his tux and I couldn’t consider the day was really occurring. I made a aware effort through the whirlwind festivities to breathe and soak in as many reminiscences as I might from that day:
Seeing all of our family and friends in the identical place, celebrating collectively… a few of whom are not with us.
Wondering if he’d shove cake in my face. (He didn’t.)

It’s been 10 years since that very day, and a lot has occurred.
We’ve seen pleasure and sorrow.
Crazy and calm.
Picking up our lives with frequent strikes.
Serenity and fear.
Swaddles, bottles, sleepless nights, and candy child snuggles.
The two largest blessings I might ever want for.
And a ravishing life with the person that I’m grateful for day-after-day.
Now it’s time to search out some champagne and cake.. 😉
