A wedding ring. Enlightens my life every day.
- You just need the ring?
  I went the whole hog and got the package with wife/wedding as well. Like you, It brings me joy every day, but was probably a lot more expensive than just getting a ring.
  
  Actually, the wife came for free. Got a complimentary upgrade from the girlfriend package from her... The fool. I'd paid all I had three times over for her. 17 days ago, she got me another upgrade with the "newborn son" addon. Can't wait to see how that turns out in the long run. This one won't be free though.
  
  Those addons are fun for about 12 years, but then they become really expensive with micro transactions like crazy, and later ending needing an entire college DLC. Start saving.
  
  I have a couple of the same addons. I'm on day four thousand and something. Can confirm those addons are not free.
  
  Congratulations on the new kiddo, and good luck! The learning curve on that one is steep, and the return policy is draconic, but it's still one of the most worthwhile things I've ever done.

  In the short term you might regret that add-on but it definitely pays off in the long run.
  
  Takes a while to configure its settings just right, especially when it frequently wipes them.

  You'd think that but they remember everything. They are always watching.
  It's kinda scary once you notice all of the mimicry.

  Nah, that's boomer humor. Since it's not really expected that we have to get married, and divorce isn't as frowned upon, generally speaking most people who are married nowadays want to be.
  
  Boomer humor it is.
  In all seriousness, I wish their couple a very happy marriage and happy, healthy kids.
