We were at a wedding two days ago. It was beautiful. As the sun set and the moon rose over the desert the couple stood under the chuppa filled with joy and excitement smiles plastered across their faces. It was a perfect moment.
Just behind me stood my husband of 11 years. I remember our wedding (not quite so scenic but the same joy and excitement) and I thought of what has happened over the last 11 years. There have been ups and downs, some big and some small. The most recent was my (our?) miscarriage just two days earlier.
Our wedding was wonderful. I loved it and have always said I would do it again but the marriage is better. Our life together, our family and each other. I love my husband and can't think of anyone else who I would rather have spent the last 11 years with, anyone else who I would want with me in the hard times or with me to celebrate the good times.
A wedding is great but right now I think marriage is even better.
