Below are words I shared for part of Cayce and Matt's wedding ceremony:

I found it very appropriate that Madison escorted Cayce down the aisle. How humbling was it to watch "their little team" walk into this moment today. For about the last 8 years, that is what they have been, a team. Cayce and Madison have walked a tough, tough road, one that we hope few will ever have to tread. And they have done so together, just the two of them. Until today.
I want to read a few words from that Paul that seem fitting, both for the peace they have provided in the past, and for the truth they hold today.
"But as surely as God is faithful, our message to you is not 'Yes' and 'No.' For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by me and Silas and Timothy, was not 'Yes' and 'No,' but in him it has always been a 'Yes.' For no matter how many promises God has made, they are 'Yes' in Christ."
1 Corinthians 1:18-20a
Paul tells us that regardless of circumstance or situation, with Christ, everything is a "Yes."
Matt, we want you to know that you are the "Yes" our family has prayed for for a long time. I stand here today with out one shred of doubt, confident that you are the result of a faithful God, truly an answer to prayer.
Thank you for loving Cayce so well, and especially loving Madison enough to be be her dad. You make them both so happy, and our family could not be happier for you. We love you.

Great words my friend. How is life these days?
You're a sweet brother. I know those words meant a lot to everyone in attendance that day. I'm glad Cayce has found him, and that family is complete.
