Son’s Marriage, Reminder of Love for Husband
Last Friday, June 22nd, my oldest son, Ben, married his sweetheart in the Salt Lake City temple. The occassion was peaceful and unhurried with mostly only family in attendance. People commented on how beautiful Brittany, the bride, looked. Brittany was radiant and all smiles. Ben was more subdued, but seemed very happy.
The sealer who married the couple challenged them to follow four steps throughout their lives:
1. Cherish each other
2. Speak softly to one another
3. Don’t go into debt, live frugal
4. Pray night and morning, make God a part of your marriage
I really liked that he didn’t give them too much advice, just enough for them to remember.
To witness the love between my son and his new bride, renewed my feelings of love and committment to my sweeheart of 27 years. Witnessing the love between Ben & Brittany on their wedding day last Friday, helped me to remember the zest, excitement, and anticipation of the day I married Ben’s father.
Thanks for reminding me how much I love your father. B & B, Ben and Brittany, I know you will have a happy marriage as you work each day to keep loving each other.
