Ready for marriage???

As you all know, my wedding is approaching. And I know some people think that it won't change anything since we have been living together for almost three years. Instead of that, to me, it's a big change, and a huge blessing to finally be able to say that I am Tonny's wife. Every day I feel so lucky to have found him, and to be able to stand infort of our families and God and make that commitment and say those promises is truly a dream come true.

My current "situation" has of course sprung many conversations with my family and friends about love and what is a happy marriage and how can I get there :). Everyone has an opinion, but I think my mom was the one who put it best. Last weekend when I was visiting her (and babysitting the adorable Daniel) she asked me to answer two simple questions. Do I trust Tonny, and do I find happiness sharing everyday with him??
I'll be the first to admit that I am super naive. I still want to believe in soul mates, and love " 'til death do us part' " and have zero tolerance for adultury etc. I say believe, because unfortunately life has shown me that sometimes things don't work out (my parents divorce after twenty-something years), sometimes you will be disappointed by the one you love (someone close to me having suffered many broken promises), and that the person you trust most in your life can be the one who ends up hurting you most. But even keeping this in mind, I can not think of any doubt or hesitation that Tonny wouldn't be the one for me, and that I couldn't trust him with everything I have... He is amazing, and every day that we share, every moment that I get to spend time with him I KNOW that he is mine and I am his. Forever.
