'til death do us part .....

I want to re-write my wedding vows. Then I want to have a do-over with the whole ceremony so that I know the important things that should be promised, are promised.

I don't know how much I would change about mine, but the parts that Sam has to say I would most certainly like to add some things...

For example ...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I promise to pick up my wrappers & drink cans from the end table before I go to bed each & every night.

I swear to never complain about the way you cook, do laundry, make the bed, or clean. I will simply always appreciate the effort.


I promise to always go grocery shopping with you, I eat the food too, therefore would love to participate in the selecting of it.

I will never ask for a "prize" just to go to wal-mart or target with you. I will go just for the sheer pleasure of spending time together.

I swear that my clothes will always make it into the hamper.

I promise to stop hanging towels off the bedroom door, and to never ever just toss them into the tub, because someone could accidentally soak them when they turn the shower on.

I will not hog the covers.

I promise to always hold onto your purse when you ask me, and I will do so proudly because it will show everyone that I do not feel emasculated by helping my wife out.

and most importantly ...

I will always leave the room to fart because I realize that they just don't smell the same to you as they do to me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Then there is one part that I would simply edit, I'm sure you'll recognize it .....




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

.... for richer or for poorer, in sickness, which by the way I promise to never act like a big giant crybaby complaining so much that you'll want to jam ice picks in your ears to just make it stop, and I will realize that if indeed I expect the world to stop because I don't feel well, then if you are ever sick, I will make sure that you have nothing to do other than feel better because I will take care of the house & children, and in health, 'til death do us part.....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I'm sure he wouldn't want to change a thing on mine ...................
