Partnership - a cooperative relationship between people.................

 I have prayed for 30 years for the perfect mates for my kids.  In fact, as you read my blogs, you'll see a pattern in the way we raised them that hopefully prepared them for this perfect mate.  I have to admit there were a few errors in judgement early on in my prayers, such as hoping they would marry orphans so I would be their favorite - ok, so maybe I didn't think it through.  But after mentally walking through the pain they would have experienced for that to be the case, I quickly changed my mantra to "that I would adore them, and they, me."  I think adoration is a noble (and humble) goal.  Well, I'm one for one so far!  (at least on my part of adoring her).  My son is getting married in September to whom I can only describe as the perfect mate.  Interesting how those prayers get answered so specifically!  She is adorable - the exact completion of our dear son.  I am so excited for their future together.  It can only get better! 

I would love to hear from you about your hopes and dreams for your children, or for your marriage, or just for yourself.  Prayers really do get answered and dreams really do come true!
