Wink''s Daughter getting married Saturday!

Congratulations, Wink!

Your wife''s gift sounds incredibly beautiful.

Congratulations! Your post made me a bit teary eyed, it''s so nice to see that daddies and daughters are so close. Have a wonderful time!

 

[tlh]

CONGRATS to your daughter and soon to be- her new husband! Enjoy the special day. It IS very special! My parents enjoyed the wedding, and in a way it was bittersweet. She will always be your little girl, and my parents compared the feelings of joy of my wedding to when they took me to school my first day. I was just this little thing, and yet I never looked back, and was excited about going to school... yet I was soo little! The future is bright, and everything is exciting... but sometimes it is hard to let go. They still remember my bright purple tights... as I''m sure they remember everything about my wedding.

Your father-daughter dance sounds amazing! How wonderful that she is such a phenomenal dancer, and how beautiful it will be. Enjoy every moment, congrats!

Congratulations!

Congrats to your daughter and family, Wink. A lot of love has obviously gone into raising your daughter and now her wedding and gifts.

(I hope you, your wife and the groom are all as calm as you report her to be.)

Wink!

Congrats and Mazal Tov!!!!
Enjoy every moment, because these moments ARE the moments we live for...everything else is ''fluff'' at best.

As an aside, your Son In Law must have been really careful about the engagement ring to make sure it was perfect in every single respect!!

You cannot let "the shoemakers child go bear foot"

.......and there was no way he was gonna get a mediocre stone past the radar

I''m sure your daughter got a heck of a rock!

Best Wishes!

LOL! Sorry Perry, not this time, although she does have a fantastic engagement diamond and some super sparkly Richard Homer gems already.

She is getting something even better. Her mother made her fabulous silk shawl on her loom. The material is super light and incredibly soft. It took weeks of planning and hours to thread onto the loom and many more hours of weaving to create this masterpiece of beauty.

It is six shades of pinks and purples randomly woven into a twil pattern. Since the material is pure silk the colors literally glow and the shawl takes on a special appearance that is slightly different in each light. A local dressmaker who Resa (my wife) showed it to asked where in the world she had found such unbelievably beautiful material. She was shocked and amazed to find that it had not been purchased for thousands of dolllars. Resa, of course, was beaming from ear to ear when she came home and told me what the dressmaker had said.

So it seems my daughter is getting an heirloom of a different nature this time. Something hand crafted and made over a period of months with love woven into every strand by her mother. Although my gems are fantastic, this is one time they did not even try to compete. I can continue trying to spoil her at Christmas and birthdays, but this moment clearly belongs to my wife.

Wink

Wink: That is indeed a gift of increadible value... Something that I am sure your daughter will treasure for years. My hats off to your wife.

Enjoy the weekend and the weeks that follow. We''ll catch up another time. For now - take care of the family and enjoy it.

Perry

Wink,
Congratulations!!! My Dad and I practiced dancing together when I was still single and 16 yr old. I hope to dance with him on my wedding too.
Your story made me shed a tear. A happy one.
Congratulations!!!!

Congratulations to you and to the happy couple, Wink. Best Wishes for a wonderful day and a fruitful life together.

I''d like to add my best wishes to the happy couple and congratulate Wink and Reza on having such a loving, close family. I hope you enjoy every minute of this momentous day.

The very special silk shawl woven by her mom will be a daily reminder of her devotion to and support of your daughter and son-in-law.

Wink, when or ''if'' you grow weary of studying gemstones, you should consider a career in journalism.
