Yes. Wedding memories. I still love to remember it. It was a great day.
You do well with Dan and his family. I haven't mastered that yet.
Well....they have been part of my family since I was 16 years old...and I know I didn't cause this so it's not like I have to hang my head around them. Besides, SIL and I were literally locker partners beforehand, friends since about 4th grade. My other SIL, mother of the graduate, took me aside and thanked me for coming, so did niece. In fact MIL gave me a mother's day card earlier this month, complete with $$, just like every year before.
Conversely Dan has shown his face around my family only a handful of times. My mom misses him actually but so it goes, his choices are his and mine are mine.
