WHAT THE HELL WAS HE THINKING?!?!

SO my brother asked me to be his best man at his wedding. That same day I went ahead and started writing my ‘best mans toast’. I wanted to post it on here so that I could get peoples feed back since I’ve never had to do anything like this and don’t want to f*ck it up….

So for your consideration I give you…. THE TOAST:

**For as long as I can remember my brother has been a foundation of my life. When he left to go to Iraq I couldn’t believe the burden and hole in my life and heart. I turned to friends at school to fill this void but none of them could match my brother.

When he came back my brother had become a man. We had both grown and matured to levels I couldn’t image. Ok who the hell am I kidding, he grew and matured, and just like all my life, I would start to follow my brothers lead. After time I had started to notice that he was showing signs of an empty heart much the way I turned to friends in high school but this was deeper. Call it a baby brother hunch but I could tell he was looking for someone that could forever fill that burden.

I’ll never forget the first time I met Becky I thought to myself: “she’s not good enough”. I thought that as only a pair of Diamond brothers that always looked out for each other. But over time I would fall for her too, not only because she’s a smart, caring and amazing women but because I’ve never seen my brother more happy when she walks into a room. A smile hits his face that shines so bright and is full of joy and love that it would make the sun jealous from the happiness beaming from it.

So I raise a glass to Becky and Justin on this amazing day knowing that she’s more that good enough, that they will never think of each other as burdens and will always fill that void in each others hearts which will be the solid foundation there love will stand on for the rest of there lives. **

Ok so there you go. I was thinking about saying something else at the end about ‘Please welcome our newest family member’ or something gay like that. Comments are welcome….
