My son got married today to the woman he loves. I overspent. I cried. I danced. I laughed. We've belonged to the same Methodist church for 10 years. (No alcohol allowed) one friend brought beer for me and my son and another brought a bottle of wine. It was so wonderful! I had flashbacks of my late husband but it wound up being a very joyous day and other people cried for the love these two share.
I am so proud.
I am so happy.
After the wedding, his bride acted so close to me. (They have been together for 2 years).
I have a new family. I love it!

Congrats to you- and so happy it was a wonderful day for you. My son and his wife - and new little one- are sooo much family for me now. I am blessed that they live nearby. We are very close also, and it really helps to have family that has been through the worst with you and care so much! Enjoy yours! Cindy
