I'm supposed to share the blessing, but as a dad with a microphone, I'm going to take
this opportunity just to share a couple of quick thoughts.
One thing I want to say is, as a dad who has two daughters, dads can be very protective
of their little girls, especially when it comes to a guy that's trying to win the affection
of her heart.
If you're a dad with a daughter, you know what I'm talking about.
But the truth is, as dads, we don't have a lot of control over that, so we have to kind
of learn to let go and trust God.
And so, early on after I met Johnny, you know, I just, I saw how he loved Jesus, I saw the
kind of man he was, I saw the character of his heart, I saw how he treated Kindle, and
he was like, I felt like God was whispering on the inside, he's the man for me.
Yeah, I know it sounds cliche, you know, I'm not losing a daughter, but I'm gaining a son,
but I just want to welcome you again to our family.
My heart, my boy's got heart, he's got a fear this way, and he's all that I know.
Dreams, I'm a girl with dreams, I got a book full of songs and he's coming with me, I got
a book full of songs and he's coming with me, long nights, long roads, start to wonder
if we'll ever be at home, after it all, I thank God you're holding me, broken hearts, broken
bones, some days I've never felt alone, after it all, I thank God you're holding me, ooh.
I can just think of so many times in conversations, just trying to speculate about what kind of
person Kendall would end up with, or what kind of person she deserves, or would be good
enough for her, or just all these different qualifications or characteristics that this
person would need to have in order to be good enough for my little sister and to be able
to handle my little sister, so because Kendall, you truly are my favorite person, I probably
would not have told you that years ago, but you are my favorite person, you are so hilarious
and so beautiful and just caring the way that you love other people, so this person has
some very high standards to me.
Oh my God, Kendall.
Johnny, I could not, like, there is no other person that I could 100% say that I trust
with my sister and her heart, and just to do life with her, you have far exceeded that
list that I compiled throughout the years, and you have even added things onto that list
that I didn't know needed to be there.
Join your right hands now and declare your consent before God and his truth.
Hi John.
Take you Kendall.
To be my wife.
Hi Kendall.
Take you John.
To be my wife.
It is my honor and privilege to introduce you for the very first time in my life.
Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Brown.
I think I have you holding me.
I think I have you holding me.
I think I have you holding me.
I think I have you holding me.
I think I have you holding me.
I always know that your family is there for you, is always here to support you and love
you.
And as you grow together, I know that you have that foundation with you guys.
I absolutely love you both and could not ask for just better people to be together.
It is very evident that you bring out the best in each other and this is just a beginning
for you.
I think I have you holding me.
I think I have you holding me.
