My Wedding Vows

We always believe that promises are not made to be broken but are made to be done. And today I will make three unbreakable promises which I, with all my might, will surely keep and done.

First, I swear to make your every FIRST as my wife blissful.

When you serve to me your first cooked dish, no matter how it tastes, it will always be delectable. I assure you because I am certain that in every spoonful I take, is the love you sprinkle on it. I love to taste whatever kind of food you serve as long as I have you to share, for every bite becomes significant with you around, just like how a carrot cake became noteworthy when we first tasted it on the 24th of June 2004 and when I let you tasted the most delicious bopis in the whole universe on our first dinner date, February 6, 2004.

When you bear our first little Allan David, you will feel heavenly. I will make sure that you will feel less pain not because you will be delivering through caesarian way but because I will try to be with you in the delivery room as your Lamaze coach. If I can’t, I will read, before the day you labor, your letter to me on Sept. 6, 2006 Wednesday, 8:20 PM saying “I would love to bear and rear little Allan Davids”. That, I am sure, can help for there is no greater thing for a couple as heavenly as bearing a child of their own.

There are still more FIRSTS ahead and I guarantee you bliss in your every first.

On Tuesday of January 27, 2004, you wrote to me saying “I thank you for bringing out the best in me. I thank you for ignoring the worst in me. I thank you for loving me for what I am, and for what….

With that, comes my second vow.

Meey, I promise to shower you love whatever you may become. I will still admire you even when you get heavy. Admiration that is no less than how much I admire you today. I will still adore you even when you grow old and your make-up can no longer hide your wrinkles just as much as how I adore you in your youth and even without your cosmetics on. I will still praise how captivating you are with your stilettos and earrings just as much as how I praise you even when you are not wearing them. I will love you in your finest and even in your nastiest just as much as you love me in my best and in my worst.

And lastly, I keep my words in telling that whatever happens, I will keep and never lose you, for you are all to me. With you, I became a better person. With you, the future looks so bright. With you, everything is so easy and light. It is hard to imagine myself without you. You are my happiness. And I want to be happy for the rest of my life. And damn I’ll do everything just to keep you mine and to keep you fall in love with me all the time.

And that starts today by telling my three unbreakable vows and by saying I love you. I always will, Mommy.
