brudder and seester
My brother is far more of a grown up than his older sister.
He moved out of state first. He's an engineer, which just screams Grown Up. He is far more generous with his time and money than I'll ever hope to be. He owns a house.
And after this weekend, he will be even more of an adult. He's getting married!
Even though I admit it hasn't been easy for me personally, I could not be more happy for him and his fiance. It's been interesting to watch my brother fall in love. I can barely believe this day has come.
This will be a bittersweet time together, what with the recent loss of Grandma, the absence of our other Grandma that died four years ago, and the fact that neither remaining grandfather will be able to join us. They should be there, my heart cries.
And yet, weddings are joyous occasions. We could all use a celebration. I've got a hot yet appropriate dress (if you make a big deal, I might just post a picture) and I'm ready to kick up my heels for awhile.
Ah, young love
So congratulations, Matt and Anna! May God bless your marriage as you begin this new chapter of your lives together.
