Daughter getting married

[Overcomer]

I know.............I got married at 25 and divorced at 36.  But these kids are different.  They pretty much "grew up" together.  She was 14 and he was 16.  He was a pretty immature 16 year old and she a mature 14 year old.  They "hung out" for so many years.  Her junior year of high school was his freshmen year of college.  She was so depressed that whole year.  They have played raquetball together in college.  They just hand out every day and night for almost seven years.  So it seems like they have been together forever.......now he just graduated college and I guess he just thinks it is time for the next stage of life!!!  I am all for it.

I think they are going to start living in the basement of my parents house (a huge home....walk out basement....mini kitchen in basement......)  Anyway, work and save money so they can buy a home in a couple of years.....

Until the bubble bursts I am ecstatic...

Hi Kel,
I just saw Juno.
Makes me think of your D and her sweetie.

SO good that they are friends.

Do not know what Juno is.  Is it a movie?  Should I see it?

[Hopalong]

Hi...it is.
And it's about a pregnant young 16 y/o.
It is only the love between her and her bf that made me think of your D and Leon, not the plot.

But it is a very heartwarming as well as very funny movie.
Incredibly well acted.

hugs

Thanks

I love the idea of picturing them in a huge house with a tiny little kitchen and their own little nesting space.

Safe and warm..... prudently putting money away for a nest of their own. 

[Overcomer]

It is a good set up.  They have adults around to "protect" them while they are getting used to this thing called adulthood.  Both have been a bit pampered.  The thought of there virginal kids having sex makes me nervous FOR them.  I say they were starting their lists-trying to keep it small.

OK.... wedding gift idea.

This might be icky but.....

there's an IUD called Meridian something like that.... it's progesterone release.... doesn't allow conception to take place, though they know not why.

Maybe that would be a good wedding gift? 

No worrying... lasts about 3 or 4 years I think and it has better percentage of bc than getting tubes tied.

Ok now I am wierding out.  My D told me they want to get married this Saturday-then I started thinking about stuff.  They went out to buy him a ring and I went to the store and saw them parked in the expectant parent spot.  So then I thought back to conversations where she said she wants a baby right away.  Then she told me she was almost through with her period but I saw NO tampons until today-but she said she was almost through.  Then I thought-maybe they had up all fooled and they really have

[Overcomer]

Been having sex all along and they are pregnant!  I hope I am just letting my mind get away from me.  But why would you want to get married one week after getting engaged?  Why would you not try to lose a few pounds-plan a real nice wedding}  Neither one has a job.  I just am wondering.

Overcomer-

However it goes, I know that you will be a fabulous mother and mother-in-law, and support them in their happiness and devotion, accept and love them for who they are. That is truly family and I know that you will show them this. Will all be perfect...most likely not, but there will be the love and the acceptance that makes life and struggle worth it all, and you will be a  cherished part.

Love,

Changing

I can't beleive they parked in the expectant parent spot while buying his wedding ring.

Oh well..... if she is pregnant.....

they're still best friends and moving together in a direction to care for each other and their child.  

Kind of interesting if you daughter's been making up information about her cycle.... just to throw you off.

Are you at least releived that he's attracted to her.... if they have been intimate?  

[Overcomer]

Oh I think they are a bit sneaky-but I truly thought they had never even kissed.  And they might have parked there because it is cold and there were no other spaces.  So I will keep you posted!  Hopefully I am jumping to conclusions-but if they are then ok-I will be a Mil And a grandma!

You have a great attitude ,Kelly.                                         Ami
