From here to there and everywhere, that’s what it feels like. We have been doing lots of traveling lately and I am LOVING it! We recently made it all the way back to northern Minnesota for my niece Amy’s wedding. My brother now has two married daughters. Incidentally, they married brothers! Such a great family they married into!
SOMETHING has to happen at every wedding right? It was a beautiful ceremony. It flew by. All of a sudden the preacher pronounced them man and wife and off they went. What? What about the kiss? Did they just pull a Jessa Duggar? I’m pretty sure we were all wondering. But no, in fact, the preacher just forgot to say, “You may kiss the bride.” Ha ha! Judging from their faces as they walked back down the aisle they thought it was pretty funny too.
The next surprise was on me. It was time for the throwing of the bouquet. Lo and behold what did I see but MY daughter among the single ladies. Time stood still.
Time has gone so fast for my brother. I can’t help but think that I’m going to blink and wake up with my own daughters walking down the aisle. So happy for Amy and Austin! Congratulations!
What?
You were in Minnesota and you didn’t stop in to visit me?
Next time you’re up in the north woods, you definitely need to let me know ahead of time = )
You are right, though ~ in what feels like “the blink of an eye” your daughter will be driving, dating, going off to college, and getting married! Treasure this time with her while she’s still at home!!!
Oh how fun that would be! Well they do have one more daughter, but it will probably be a few years before there is another wedding. 🙂
We could meet at Chick-fil-A = )
That would be perfect! 🙂
You got that right, it will be like the blink of an eye. I just want to smother my 15 year old and never let him go. My oldest daughter has been married for two years and everything is going by so fast. I know I’m supposed to be getting excited for grandbabies and time alone with my husband when my son goes to college, but for me it all happened too quickly. Should have had more kids!
I go between wanting to squish them to stay little and wanting them to grow up, though I know I just need to enjoy every moment I have. They sure are a blessing.
