Congratulations you two.. you deserve each other, and what you have is beautiful. I'm so happy for you, and Uriah especially.. I know this is what you've been longing for, and you deserve it more than anyone. Your happiness means so much to me, and I think you've really found it. May your family be everything you've dreamed in your heart of hearts. I cannot express the goodness I feel from this news. You deserve so much from life, and I wish that you have it.
Peace be with you always.
