StrawberryFields Posted June 12, 2004 Report Posted June 12, 2004 Tomorrow my son is going through the temple for the first time and then he will be getting married to his sweetheart of two years. I couldn't be happier of the choices he is making and I adore my new daughter in law to be. The problem is I Have Butterflies in MY stomach. I don't know if it is just the emotions that I am feeling with him getting married and moving on or something else. I do know that I miss my mom desperately and I wish that I could be sharing this time with her. I know how proud she would be of my son, they were very close. I think about seeing him in the temple as I can remember so clearly how I felt my very first time through. I worry about being able to keep my emotions in check because I am so very proud of him I am afraid that I will just burst. So many thoughts... my life with my cute little family will forever be changed. These next few weeks are going to be such an exciting, happy, and emotional time. I need to just breathe and take each day as it comes... right? Quote

Not a lot of people out there with degrees in any particular prophesion, except maybe in Ootah or Californicate. Quote

About 30 family members are gathering to go with her on her first session and welcome her and her husband to be in the Celestial room. She has always been Daddy little girl and one of my best river guides. Talk about empty - our 7 bedroom home is left to just my wife and I.The Traveler Quote

Talk about empty - our 7 bedroom home is left to just my wife and I.The Traveler Traveler,I am honored that you replies to my post. I have read your words of wisdom in the past and you make me think. :) Today was BEAUTIFUL! We also have many friends and family member whom gathered for support for the sweet couple. It was pure joy to spend the time with them in them temple today. My FIL is a temple worker and he was able to do his job and still be with us. I even got to hug my son in the Celestial Room with some encouragement from his father of course. It's amazing how fast time goes with our children. We feel think we have had him our whole lives but when we bunch it all together it seem like only 6 years and we have been robbed. Quote

I do understand what you are saying and it will be fun. Life is all about change and I like the way she treats my son. What is going to be interesting to see is how much he really learned at home and how he will incorporate those things into his family. The other day when we went to see is new place he made the announcement that it would need to be cleaned first and my DIL to be said it looks fine. He has not been one to ever even load a dish without being told. Grandbabies are not "planned " for a couple of years. :) Quote
