Wow! My daughter is getting married Saturday. Seems like only yesterday she was running around in diapers terrorizing her older brother and beating the poor dog on the head with any book she was strong enough to lift. Last night we took a dance class to make sure we were on the same page on how a waltz is supposed to be done. I need not have worried, she is a wonderful dancer. For our Father/Daughter dance we are going to do the Sleeping Beauty Waltz by Tchaikovsky. I am so excited to do this with her, she is so beautiful and dances so well. Even when I mess up she follows as if she knows what I am doing and trusts me to find us again with no one to know it was not scripted. Only her mother has ever followed me so well and with such total trust, sigh. I am gaining a wonderful son in law, he is incredible and every thing a father could wish for his daughter. I may be a little out of touch the next couple of days, but I will be having the time of my life watching my beautiful daughter take this next exciting step in her life.

Date: 9/3/2009 7:35:15 AM Author: perry Congradulations Wink. I wish all the best... Got to ask though.... Does she get a saphire pendant as a weading gift... (or something similar). Perry 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, I have known you as my friend, teacher, and boss for several years now. Over the course of those years you continue to amaze me, inspire me, and have me completely in awe of you and your lovely wife. Best wishes for the happy couple, and congratulations to you and Resa. Savor the dance, enjoy the day. You've probably been dreaming of it since you first held your daughter! Melissa |

Thank you all for your kind words, thoughts, and prayers. It is such a joyous time in my life and my daughter has worked so hard to make this the wedding that she wanted, and all without becomming super stressed or snarky. Her wedding planner and DJ have both expressed amazement that she is so calm just days before the wedding and have said that she is just about the easiest person that they have ever dealt with. I am truly blessed. Wink Wink Jones |
