Us Kernan’s certainly aren’t subtle,
our opinions might leave a mark.
But there’s something to being tough and fiery:
It all must start with a spark.
We’re four siblings with personality aplenty,
and some here more prone to a fight.
King Jack boasts a temper so even.
But there was something more that made the balance so right.
It all comes down to heart, and ours we celebrate today.
With holiday cheer year round, we wouldn’t work without Shea!
In our competitive brood – emotion often takes a backseat,
but Shea brings us back to center with every post, text, and tweet.
As kids we couldn’t understand, and I’m filled with regret looking back…
Shea I apologize for not seeing you, on behalf of myself, Kaely and Jack.
These days we spend togethr are few and far between,
but you’re still the spark to our foursome, our favorite birthday queen
Today we celebrate your marriage,
and looking around its very clear:
The unique beat that bewildered us before
is the kindling that brought John here.
To our Shea, our heart and spark,
with your never failing warmth and grace:
as a Victor you’ll spark new fires,
on one of the greatest adventures you’ll face.
As you and John make your path through life
With humor and some compromise you’ll certainly thrive.
We are with you always and forever,
and couldn’t be happier that this foursome has become five.
