CONGRATULATIONS TODD & CELESTE!!
I first want to say congratulations to my dear brother and dear sister-in-law on this special day – the day in which you are united through God and committed to each other for the rest of your lives.
Todd – You have always been my favorite, I mean…my one and only brother, and I have treasured the close bond that we have always shared. Thank you for putting up with me throughout the years and especially for being okay with me stealing the show on your 2nd birthday! I’ve always treasured being born on the same day as you and sharing our birthdays together each year. Also, for being the oldest, you have always set a great example for me. Thank you for that.
Celsete – I am so excited to finally be able to have a sister! I know that technically by marriage you would be considered my sister in-law, however, to me you are considered my sister. I have really enjoyed all of the fun times we have shared together these past few years getting to know each other and share a lot of fun and silly moments. It is a pretty special thing to have a new person enter into one’s family and I can’t think of a better person to become my sister than you.
I would never have thought that I would miss your wedding day – one of the most significant and meaningful days of your life. However, I truly believe that God has called me around the world for a reason and a purpose during this exact moment in time. This is probably one of the biggest and hardest sacrifices I’ve had to make since leaving but God has given me such a peace about all of it. I am so blessed to be able to celebrate this special day with you half way around the world.
Here’s to many years of blessings in your marriage.
