The WIFE is "boss".

The wife is REAL boss.

And, for all that you're worth... never let yourself BEGIN to every think otherwise.

In fact there was no cake, period.

We did a buffet of peitie fours, tiramisu, and fruit for our guests and a small strawberry shortcake for the wife and I...

There's a peitie four in it for you, though!

If I heard "take 5 minutes for yourself once an hour" a hundred times in the weeks ahead of our day that "it will go by so quickly, so take those minutes for just yourself" I heard it a hundred more.

However I really never would have guessed it and I'm glad I/we regarded those words of advice, because tonight on the eve of our honeymoon together, it all went by so quickly...

Thanks for the kind words of encouragement, everyone!

Until next time, be well...
