“HAPPINESS [is] ONLY REAL WHEN SHARED”
― Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild
************
Instead of my usual Sunday sermon or silliness, I have something sensational to share. Today is my eldest son’s birthday. He’s a great kid and calls me every Sunday without fail. I knew that he was going on vacation with his lovely girlfriend, Lindsay, this week, so I didn’t expect a call. But, to my surprise, he called me in the afternoon to let me know that he had proposed to Lindsay and they plan to get married. I was sitting at Sweet Spot bakery and got soooo excited and emotional, that I cried like a baby. Poor Miss Kathy came over with napkins and touched my shoulder, as she thought something terrible happened. Isn’t that great!
Now, I am a happy mom who wishes a long and happy future for her son and soon-to-be wife. (I didn’t even say, “Finally!”)
Yes, happiness is only real when shared, so I’m sharing my joy with you. Congratulations Joe and Lindsay!
Congratulations Toni. I know how excited you must be. That must have been a moment you will never forget. Wish I was there to give you a big hug too. ❤
Thanks! It’s nice to get some great news. Now, I have to wait to be a grandma. I will try and be patient.
Congratulations, Toni, are you waiting for the wedding bells?
Happy Days!! Give them time to enjoy each other before thinking of children, I was glad I waited awhile.
