Josh: "Well, here we are. I don't know that there's anything left we haven't said to each other. A couple of hours ago I tried to think of something. I went down to the river by that old big rock we used to dive off of. Do you remember that? And I sat there and tried to come up with some words but all I really got was pictures. It was like having my whole life flash before my eyes and you were always there. Right up there in front. I remembered the first time I ever saw you, the first time you came into our house. I believe I threw a softball at you, and I believe you chased me around with a bat after that. Pretty little girl with a real long braid running down the length of her back. I was six years old and I fell in love. And now it's hard for me to remember a time that I didn't love you. It's hard for me to imagine a season without you in it. And I thank God I don't have to think about a time when you won't be there. I love you, Reva. And I love our little girl. And from this moment on we are going to be the family that we were always meant to be. The family that we always were....Always, Reva." Reva: "Always, Bud. Well, I looked out today and I saw everybody....all the people I've loved all my life. The sky so blue and the sweet smell coming off the river. And for a split second I thought this is heaven, or this is what heaven is gonna be like. And then I looked at you, Bud. And I said no, this is our wedding day. This is the day when the past meets the future. Right here, right now. I feel so full now, and so blessed. And you're right, there isn't much we haven't said to each other. We've kept secrets and we've made promises to each other ever since we were kids. And I'm gonna make the biggest promise that I've ever made to you right now. The rest of my life is yours. I wanna give you a home, a home that feels like a safe harbor in a storm. Because giving to you is what makes me full. And I think that's the way it's supposed it be. I love you, Bud." |
