On the day of the planned ceremony, our daughter in law pulled up with Patrick and Erin. Both were dressed very nicely, Patrick with his dress shoes....a BIG deal. And he carried a long stem pink rose for me. He was disappointed that I was not wearing the boooooootiful wedding dress. I convinced him that I could not retrieve it, BUT, in true Gramma creativity I had a long white nightgown....but no veil. Sooooooooooo a cherished doiley served as the veil. The whole thing took about 3 minutes....and he was ready to ride the bigwheel.
So you are probably wondering "what's the point?" Well, the point is don't be afraid to let your hair down (or wear a doiley) and pretend when you are with your grandchildren. They will cherish the memory and put it in the treasure chest of the memories they carry in their hearts and minds...and so will you.
I wish you joy and peace.....
