 Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please.
Put down your glass and become at ease.
Although I am not your only host.
Please, bear with me, I too have a toast.
I was there at the beginning of this union today.
Climbing with my sister when I heard this guy say.
Please come out with me, I promise it will be fun.
You can bring your brother if it will make you come.
Now this was an offer I could not refuse.
You see as a pilot I am always looking for free food.
So off they went to dinner, with me baby sitting.
I really did not mind as long as he was paying.
At dinner Pedro was fascinated by our little family tree.
I just smiled and thought, buddy, you just wait and see.
Sure enough Pedro did not have time to rest.
Before he knew it he was being put to the test.
But the biggest test of all he passed with flying colors.
For we could all tell he really, really loved her.
I have been in love once or twice and have found.
Love is what gives us meaning, makes the world go round.
Ultimately that’s what it takes for a marriage to last.
Lots of giving and compromise for love to hold fast.
There is an old saying that promotes “give and take”
That’s not true in marriage, not if you’re awake
Marriage grows stronger when this thought is met
It is not give and take, it is more give and get.
Some times will be easy, others a bit rough
But you will survive because your love is enough
That is what makes this such an incredible day.
You have committed to each other, come what may.
You have a purpose in each others life.
You are more then two people, you are one man and wife.
The whole is much greater then each of its parts
Because of the joining of two loving hearts
This love is destined to stand the test of time.
Luckily that is not the case for my little rhyme.
So please rise up and say all together.
We wish you both happiness, now and forever.
