My son is tall, smart and handsome, too
But he was never quite the romeo
Not until he scouted for a job
And met a girl from SanAntonio

Lindsay caught his eye and she looked his way
On OK Cupid, not oddly
And since that day his friends all say
Josh never smiled so broadly

Their journey, their story continues
From Texas to Palm Beach and back
How many times did they drive back and forth?
At last they can finally unpack

Angus, her dog, endured by her side
Today he witnessed every vow
Like him the guests wish them the best
Josh and Lindsay are married now

So lets celebrate their marriage
Raise your champagne glass or water
Dearest Josh and Lindsay, I love you both
My son-and now a daughter!
I just returned from my son and his brand new wife's wedding in SanAntonio, Texas.  This was my heartfelt, sentimental toast.  It was a fascinating, Texas-style celebration at the SanAntonio Museum of Art that had only one major glitch-her dog, Angus, the ring-bearer, lost the rings that were fastened to his tuxedo when the flower girls were walking him about...even the metal detector failed to find them.
