A journey in the making. A new beginning.

It's been an amazing journey. To see a man's tender heart heal from heartbreak and long for love. To see him go down a long, hard road of loneliness. To see my eldest child try to cope and find a replacement for someone she loved so much. To see a transformation come over our family; one that made us all closer as a family. To see that companionless soul yearn for companionship. And to see him find her. The one. To see them fall in love. To see the bright future ahead. To see her enter the waters of baptism. To see my children fall in love all over again. To see someone love them again. To see our family embrace her. To escort her through the temple ceremony to receive her endowments. And then again to be sealed for time and all eternity. It's been a journey well worth the wait. Oh, it is so beautiful!

That is just about the sweetest thing I've read all day! And I LOVE the addition of Corbin's belly to the bridal party! You know, I think that's what our wedding was missing!

Stephanie, she is fabulous! You should take advantage of us when she moves to Utah.

M, thanks. It's been long past due. We feel so blessed for Gary to have her...and yes, in my opinion, the big belly hanging out was one of the cutest parts of the whole shebang!

Thanks for making me cry. I am so glad you are all happy and that she loves the kids. Of course they are very easy to love so that was a given. I miss you guys.
