A New Daughter


Today, my sweet little boy -- who isn't so little anymore, but rather a young man -- has asked his high school sweetheart, Bethany, to marry him! They have decided to solemnize their vows in the fall of 2009.

As a mother of a wonderful son, but no other children, I am excited at the thought of gaining the addition of a daughter! (And, although this is years away, I look forward to grandbabies, too!!) I know all of this is a few years into the future, but I reserve the right, as a proud Mama, to enjoy every new endeavor and every new joy in my son's life as they abound; as they serve to enrich my life immeasurably. :o) And, of course, my son's happiness, is my happiness.

So, congratulations Damion and Bethany! Although it's two years until that day, I pray for your happiness toward that blessed event, and forever after!

(And the first person that comments on the advancement of my age in view of this news will feel the bite of my tongue and the wrath that ensues!)

Signing off.... ;o)

Thanks, Karie!

I think I'll make a great "Grammie" too! And since, it's not likely I'll be having any babies of my own, it'll be fun to share in the ones that my son might have. :o)
