Jess' Renewal of Vows

24 September 2005


Patricia Anne Sparkes, you make me want to be a better man.

You are the finest human being I've ever known.

For a quarter century I have marvelled at our good fortune in having you all to ourselves. [Jed and Rebecca and me]   I feel as if I'd walked off with the Crown Jewels and no one's noticed yet.

If I believed in such things, I would say that you were an Angel sent by God to show us the power of Love.

Instead, I believe something even more miraculous: that you have chosen of your own free will to love me in spite of all my flaws.

Now I promise that for the rest of our lives I will make it easier:

I will give you all of my love.

I will cherish, honor, support and appreciate you every day, through thick and thin, as long as we both shall live.

You make me want to become a better husband, father, friend and lover.

Starting now, all over again.
