“Third, expect all those compliments you’ve heard from her to be replaced by criticism. The only nice thing Lisa ever said to me after we were married was eleven years ago when she told me, ‘You know, in dim light you’re not all that ugly’.” All laughed again.
Wedding night festivities had to be postponed because of Robert’s injuries and Kristen’s too-recent trauma. The couple just cuddled in bed as best they could. It was the most peaceful night she could ever recall. Finally she had her soul mate, and she would never let go.
Five days later, they consummated their union, conceiving the first two of their four children.
Robert and Kristen Owens would have their ups and downs like anyone else, but they spend the rest of their lives loving each other and their children; that’s all that ever mattered, and all that ever will.
