I am still on cloud 9.
My younger son, who has been dating this beautiful young woman for over 7 years, married her on Saturday. It was beautiful and fun and joyful and happy. From start to finish.
The service was sweet and short. But exactly the message wanted by the bride. Their vows were just… beyond description. Heartfelt without being hokey. Very spiritual and deep, while also maintaining some whimsy.
Those of you who share faith, you understand the power of seeing a union built on shared faith.
Our dances were a BLAST. No weepy dances for us. Bride and Groom’s first dance was to "Home"
By Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. Father-Daughter dance was to Dancing Queen by ABBA. And her Daddy can STEP!! Whole choreographed number.
And Mother-Son was Soak up the Sun by Sheryl Crow. I brought props—beach towel, sunglasses, sunscreen. We hadn’t been able to practice so I literally was talking him through it, lol.
We are so blessed.
Other stuff is going on. I’ll update later. 
Me, 56
Him, 48 (JMSSC)
Married 26 years. Reconciled.
