WEDDING WEEKEND

9/24/10 More details to follow----but I do know that I will be listening to the vows taken as two become one----Sara and Cody will become Mr. & Mrs. Cody Liles.
As yesterday's blog indicated, I have been pondering wedding vows a lot this past week. Having seen my parents for 60 years as a unit and then to see Daddy become a 1st person singular has been bittersweet. Sorry for loss but glad for what they had. Our entire family seemed to take on a new verb tense with Mother's death--- like living in the past tense. Yet there was comfort in remembering all the years they had together. That's what my parents marriage looked like----togetherness, "til death do us part."

Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them. (Colossians 3:19)

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: (Proverbs 31:28)
