I think I like it better with the blue chief.
Is the motto still "Fidēs Spēs et Cāritas" (from 1 Cor 13)?

Ditto.
Nice enough, though. Your wife couldn’t be convince to go with a demi horse I guess?

Was there another thread where a version with a blue chief was presented?
I keep missing key points of Friar Brett’s conversations…

Niether of us are very found of the demi horse, I’ve designed arms with them when requested but they dont sit right with me.

Wow the pun was so not intended rofl
I haven’t seen the blue-chief version (I don’t "do" Facebook—old dog, new tricks & all that) but in my mind’s eye, I have to agree with your wife. (so should you—remember Rule #1, She’s always right; Rule #2, see Rule #1)
Nice design, nicely done. What’s the surname?

Maiden name is Greenberg, she was adimately opposed to a canting design (rather understandable)
For those who missed the original rendering from facebook:

Thanks for posting the Facebook version.
While the blue chief is a nice design, if it were me—which of course it isn’t!— unless there was some important symbolical reason for the blue chief, I would still prefer the version with the plain black field —but then de gustibus & all that. Either version is quite nice.

the wife prefers the all sable as well
Well we’ve done some tweaking to the design, nothing major. this rendering still needs some final touch ups and I may move it to a different shield or a lozenge.
BLAZON: Sable, a horse passant argent, in chief a bezant en soeil charged with a plate, between two fleur-de-lis of the second. (feel free to correct me if necessary)
