Wow!

So, I was talking to my mom on the phone while I was driving home yesterday (using my legal, hands-free device of course) and she said something that I never thought I would hear her say. Ever. Not in a million years. I was shocked. I was stunned. I almost had to pull over and stop the car.

She said, "Well, I think that you and Derrick should get married now that it's legal. If you guys are planning on spending the rest of your lives together, you need your legal protections."

I never thought I would ever hear her dissent from the popular voice of "the church." I almost cried a little.

Life is very good today. It's been a long road, and we've come a long way.

Cheers!
