Mom Monday: My Son's Wedding Day!

by on ‎09-09-2013 10:24 AM

Nothing can prepare you for the love and bond between a mother and her child. This is especially so on your own child's wedding day.


My own wedding feels like it was just yesterday.



I met my husband Richard in college and we married shortly after graduating. A few years into building our lives together as a married couple we decided to have children and start a family. Raising our three children has been the most rewarding experience of my life. Through infancy and childhood, high school and college, it has been an amazing journey. Now they are blossoming into wonderful young adults and are thinking about starting their own families.


My son, David is the first of my children to get married. Seeing him standing at the altar, a handsome young man dressed in a tuxedo, smiling as his beautiful wife Christine walked down the aisle, brought tears to my eyes. All of the stress and agitation that goes along with planning a wedding drifts away and I was overcome with love, joy and happiness. I was proud of the man he had become and excited for their future. I know he will be an incredible husband and has chosen a wonderful young woman to spend his life with.




Everyday is a new page in both my children's lives and in mine. When they were young, I cherished every moment as I watched them grow.  Now, it gives me great joy to see their lives unfold. As my mom once told me, it's like reading a book as I turn the pages and watch their lives blossom.


xoxo,

Susan
