It's 2 AM..

It is 2 AM and I am wide awake.   I would compare it to Christmas eve when I was a little kid.  I am excited to be joined with the woman I love.  Tomorrow Today I start the next chapter in my life.



Back when I was young I never thought I would be married.  I even wrote up a contract stating the fact that I wouldn't marry anyone.  I thought I was destined to be alone.  I knew I could love someone but I never thought that someone would find it in their heart to love me.

Miracles happen.  I know that God has a sense of humor.  I had resolved to live my life alone and He sends this angel to me.  This woman who has loved this ugly duckling.  she has seen something in me that I didn't know anyone would see. She understands my  jokes and even laughs at them. (bless her heart). She listens to me babble about my 40k armies and even reads my blogs. (She is amazing!)  Most of all she loves me for who I am and wants to make me happy as much as I want to make her happy.

So at 2 PM the celebration begins.  I thank everyone for helping out to make this day special.  Brien and Vanessa for cooking for the reception.  Matt and Cindy for getting the drinks and popcorn. Chris and Michelle for the plane tickets and video taping and helping out with getting stuff ready.  Penny Cheryl for making the hall look beautiful.  Debbie for being a great Matron of Honor and supporting us when we needed it.  Steve for being there for me. Joel and Shannon for taking photos for us to help kep the memory of this day fresh in our mind.

Lastly I like to thank my Mom.  With out her I would not be here.  She never gave up on me and always prayed for the Lord to find someone to share my life with.  She has worked hard to make this day special The Rehearsal party was great. The food for the receptionwill be awesome.  Just you putting up with me for the last 38 years makes you a saint.  I hope you will look back on this day and be proud of me.  Remember no matter how far away I go you are still my mom and I will still love you and always think of you.

Diana.  You are the love of my life.  The first time I saw you I thought you were special.  Even when you told me you were moving away I still wanted to get to know this woman with the smile that lit up the movie theater.  I do not regret one second of time with you.  Not one mile I traveled to be with you.  I want to grow old with you and enjoy all the adventures we will have.  I want to share your pains and be there to comfort you when you are ill or sad.  I look forward to just living life with a partner.  you are a dream come true.

So long single Andy.  You had a good run but it is time for an upgrade.  time for Andy 2.0.
