Blissful, stunning newlywed Jessica Simpson has penned a column for Glamour in which she revealed her wedding vows, but with a bit of a twist.
These aren't just the vows she exchanged with Eric Johnson at the altar, but the vows she's taken for herself, as they pertain to nurturing a happy marriage.
"When I was younger and starting out in the music business," Jessica writes, "I always felt like I was being defined by other people ... industry executives, fans, the media, and so on. It took a while, but now that I'm in my 30s, I’ve grown into myself and established my identity on my terms. I embrace my strengths and celebrate even the small victories. I'm certainly not perfect, but when I look in the mirror, I'm proud of the woman I see. I'm not only a mother, wife, and daughter. I'm me."
While a wedding is "one happiest days of your life," she says "the love you are walking toward is most rewarding when you have that love coming first from within."
"It's a time to celebrate with family and friends as you vow to build a life with your soulmate. These are the vows that I've made toward a loving marriage."
Now that the wedding has passed, "I've had some time to reflect on how life's challenges and accomplishments have brought me to where I am right now. "
"I am married to the love of my life and am constantly trying to be the best mom I can be for Maxwell and Ace," she says, and it's going very well.
"I feel truly comfortable in my own skin. Better exercise habits, food choices, and lifestyle changes have contributed to this, but ultimately, my confidence comes from my state of mind,"
"Here are just a few things I've learned in the past few years that I will take with me into the next chapter," Simpson writes in Glamour, adding:
"Hopefully they bring you closer to yourself and your happily-ever-after."
