All while his father and I watched, wondering what else life had in store for our son. Surely it had to be something wonderful. He deserved something wonderful. But Michael has always been tenacious, and he persisted, until Susan agreed to become his wife. The two of them planned their wedding ceremony, complete with special inclusion of the memories of the two organ donors who saved Michael for his Susan, and the whole family gathered for a day of love and laughter, and more than a few happy tears.
Weddings are beautiful things, always.
Weddings are a time for joy, and rejoicing. And, sometimes, a day for something wonderful. The best location for a wedding is beside the water in the evening. Imagine a paintbox sky at sunset, and a stately heron as a witness as the breeze stirs the trees and clatters in the palms. All around are the sounds of nature, hushed a little in respect, as the vows are taken.
