I'm sure everything will go well and you will find that you have many things in common (like 2 great kids) with Joe's Mom.

I have learned to trust God more as I trust her as well. <br />The fact is, we do raise our children as best as we know how, according to our own convictions, then TRUST HIM for the rest! :)<br />Thank you so much for sharing this post as it has touched and encouraged me. :)<br />And, I will be praying for you as you meet the in-laws and continue with the wedding plans!<br />Blessings!SagebrushFarmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15013987477551669408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-36955821746715183632011-03-25T23:49:30.098-04:002011-03-25T23:49:30.098-04:00Elizabeth, it will all work out OK.

My own daughter considered her Confirmation day, her graduation from Church. I was lucky if she attended during holidays with us. I learned it was pretty much the same for her now husband growing up! I fully expected this daughter of mine to marry on hilltop with the sky and birds in attendance! And, I was ready to accept that decision! This year we will celebrate their first wedding anniversary. And, need I say, when it came time to plan their wedding, it was IMPORTANT to both of THEM to receive the Holy Sacrament of Marriage in the Church! Whatever their choice, it is love that brought them together and love that will bind you all. In-laws and out-laws, Church or not! God Bless you and yours!Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09641927292823354783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-2362248690600569652011-03-25T17:21:50.974-04:002011-03-25T17:21:50.974-04:00I prayed that you will find that you are great fri...I prayed that you will find that you are great friends and that through this relationship, your children will see that they need God at the center of their lives! I love reading your stories, whether they have cute items or not. I think you have a great ability to tell your story that grabs us by the heart strings. I am glad you will continue to write. I will be looking forward to the rest of the story!Paper Dollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10954124673776935513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-81823770131646681492011-03-25T17:14:11.466-04:002011-03-25T17:14:11.466-04:00I'm sure they will find all of you quite lovab...I'm sure they will find all of you quite lovable:)<br />Happy Meeting (~~) JuliePieceful Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01866148327344500334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-3578932063614668392011-03-25T15:48:48.044-04:002011-03-25T15:48:48.044-04:00I love this exciting new chapter in your life.

And I'm sure that there will be a special connection between you and Joe's Mom, because although fathers certainly love their children, I think it's mothers who take special pride in their children.

I believe that it should "look" one way, and God is working things out "His" way, which is always better than mine. He has a definite plan here and I pray that it's one that leads them both to the feet of Christ who will bless them with an incredible marriage. I didn't come to the full realization of my need for Christ until I was 32 (I'm 49 now). Though I was raised in a Christian home, God needed me to go through some things so that He would be glorified through my story. Their story is being written.

They had only known each other for a few months before they were engaged. They have been very happily married for 5 years and are expecting their first child (my first grandchild--YAY!) any day now. Sometimes you just know when you've found "the one". Sounds like Kellye and Joe know and will live happily ever after. I hope you have a wonderful time meeting Joe's parents.Tresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308276927249408892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-17324404827610159692011-03-25T09:07:44.777-04:002011-03-25T09:07:44.777-04:00Hey dear friend,

It was hard to accept a nonCatholic marriage but I truly believe I cannot force my beliefs upon my children. I love them for whom they are and their happiness is what is most important to me. I am sure your daughter will have a lifetime of happiness with Joe.annemariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07526668349590879593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-91879307488306819952011-03-25T06:05:07.136-04:002011-03-25T06:05:07.136-04:00Powerful post, Elizabeth!Powerful post, Elizabeth!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15031042862597300242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3609732936454279203.post-7231811914167613392011-03-25T04:29:43.281-04:002011-03-25T04:29:43.281-04:00I happen to love my daughter's soon-to-be ex-i...I happen to love my daughter's soon-to-be ex-inlaws.
