It seems just yesterday Amber (my oldest) was born and now today she is grown! Her boyfriend proposed to her on Valentines day and she accepted. I have many mixed emotions. Is that normal? She is only 18 he is almost 19. They want to get married July 11th. I am just fearful because things will be hard on them. He has a good job and plans to continue his career in the medical field. She plans to go to beauty school and work part time. They both have good heads on their shoulders and are good Christian Kids (although Chris just got saved he thought he was before and just was unsure because he got saved at a young age and wanted to be sure). I just dont want them to struggle. I love them so. Amber is so excited! I am trying to be. I dont want to NOT be excited but kids sometimes dont look at the big picture. I know I have to let her go sometime I just did not think it would be so soon. So I guess I have a wedding to plan. Much to do!!!
Any tips or advice for the scared mommy would be greatly appreciated.....prayers too for the couple and their life journey!!

Oh Karen how exciting!! I am happy for your family and your daughter and her fiance'!!
Many prayers for you all!!
Congratulations!!
Yea, it happens before you know it, and once they get it in thrir head there's no getting it out!
My advice after four girls weddings is: enjoy it! Make a promise to each other (you and your daughter)that you are not going to get into any quarrels about wedding plans. Also pray alot! Everything will turn out OK
!
My prayers, Gail
Congratulations! I will pray for this precious couple. Thanks for sharing the good news!
