LoriM Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Awwww, Jean! I know exactly how you feel. My firstborn got married in January, and now she lives across town, is working fulltime, and we rarely see her, except at church on Sundays. She's happy and busy (although right now she has a summer cold!). CONGRATS! Enjoy the day. I hope you get to be "Mother of the Bride" in exactly the way you wish tomorrow. I'll be praying for you all. ((Jean)) LoriM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommyfaithe Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 My dd is getting married Saturday! My To Do List is printed on my blog today. http://www.shadesofwhite.typepad.com/ What chaos. What joy! What sadness! Sigh. She still has her 4.0 at college and will finish her last semester this fall. We enter into a new part of family life this week. I think I'll laugh and cry at the same time. :)Jean Congrats Jean! I think our kids have grown up "together," and so have we. My oldest dd got married 2 years ago. Oh, where did the time go??? Enjoy every minute and love your son in law as your own. Saturday starts another part of the journey. I blogged a bit about it on my blog. My beautiful daughter is so missed around here...and for the first year or so, she was so busy fitting herself into all her new roles and I was busy with my herd of kiddles. These past few weekd we have begun once again to connect and make lots of time for eachother...as 2 women and as Mommy and daughter once again. Enjoy your new role and the journey.

Jean You know, it's fun keeping track of even our adult children. I can remember following Janie's story as her dd enlisted, was deployed and then on her way home, bumped into her mom at a restaurant. Now I enjoy popping over to Janie's school site to get some good ideas. Many blessings for your dd and you! Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
