There are three of us in our marriage. It is a relief. If it was just me and Greenfingers it would be a disaster. Thankfully we have a third cog in our marriage wheel who causes unrest in our hearts when we are being overly selfish, mean , impatient or thoughtless. If this voice didn't exist we might have fallen apart a long time ago. We are thankful that we know a real God who gives us grace each day, offers us unconditional love, constantly pushes us to be better people, to be more like Him. I admire Greenfingers for striving to me a better man, a more loving husband, to understand me more.
On our wedding day six years ago we didn't just make wedding vows to each other, we made a covenant with God. And that promise will last "til death do us part".
all this darkness is a small and passing thing

I'm writing this as you commented over on Xbox4NappyRashes site congratulating him on the birth of his daughter.
ReplyDeleteI am writing it here because this post is down the page a bit and i don't want him to see it :)
A while ago, before Martin's (xbox4nappyrash) wife got pregnant I promised I would post a youtube video of me singing "Yes" by Mcalomont & Butler whilst accompanying myself on the ukulele to celebrate the birth of their child.
This will not be a pretty sight as I can neither sing, nor really play the ukulele (this isn't false modesty - I really can't).
However what I thought might make it really cool would be instead of just a straight video I put together a montage of videos shot by readers of his blog all celebrating - i.e. dancing, sticking thumbs up, cheering, holding up signs, that sort of thing. It would have to be something that would work without sound as I would put my (awful) soundtrack over the top of it.
It would be great if you could participate. If you send me a short 5-15 second video clip (or at a push a photo, but a video would be much better) along with your name and blog then I'll put it together with other submissions and get something ready for the end of the week. I think it would be a really nice thing to do for martin to show him and E how pleased we are for him. and Martin has been incredibly supportive of me and my various projects in the past.
