Beautiful! Is that the church in the background?

Congratulations!
#6: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 14, 2010
Thanks, everyone.

Tom, I have two sons. Remember the news article about my son who has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome? This is my other son, Chris, the "baby."
#7: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on May 14, 2010
no Teresa, didn't see that article, only saw the clip of your daughter with her new boyfriend :-)
#8: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 14, 2010
Oh. Then I'm confused by your response ("yes") to my comment on your puzzle #8380 where I posted the link to the article I thought you used for the idea for the puzzle ("ask Teresa"). Now I have to ask you: If you didn't read that article, then what is puzzle #8380 all about? I guess I should ask that question over on the other puzzle. See you over there. :-)

Beautiful! Here's to a happy, fulfilling long life together! (sniff, sniff....oh, where's the kleenex?)
#16: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 15, 2010
:-D
#17: Nancy Kay (joyfulnancy) on May 15, 2010
Congratulations, Teresa! My son and his sweetheart are getting married in two weeks! :)
#18: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 15, 2010
Cool. We can give each other mother-in-law advice. :-)
#19: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on May 15, 2010
oh, oh, the kids are in touble now :D
#20: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 15, 2010
The best advice I've received so far is to just smile and say "Oh..." without any tract of judgment or sarcasm in the tone of my voice. :-)

I told my son that he should always put his mother first... until he gets married, and then he should always put his wife first. He said, "Really?" I said, "Really! But if you make the right choices and play your cards right, you will never have to hurt one to please the other."

I will never interfere with their relationship. Well, I will certain not do that consciously. I truly want them to be happy together. But I have to admit, since he has her to take care of him (and she does take care of him), he doesn't seem to need me anymore. I have lost my baby. But my two other babies will always be needing me to nurture and guide them, so I won't run out of opportunities to mother any time soon. :-)

hugggssss Teresa
thats alot of stress you put on your son
#22: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 15, 2010
Thanks for the hugs, Tom. Don't worry about Chris, he has less stress in his life than anyone I know. :-)
#23: Jota (jota) on May 26, 2010
Good luck !!! I wish them ever growing love !!!
#24: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 26, 2010 [SPOILER]
Thanks, Jota. The wedding was lovely, perfect in every way. They looked just like this right after their vows and just before the kiss. :-)
#25: karl (keicher) on May 22, 2020
its refreshing to come across a good image, in a nice size, which is fairly clean and recognizable. good job.
#26: Jota (jota) on May 22, 2020
Ten years later ... how are they doing?
#27: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 22, 2020
Karl, thanks very much.

Jota, the marriage only lasted two years. Turns out the divorce was a good thing. My son did not find Ms. Right yet, but is a happy bachelor in the meantime.
#28: Jota (jota) on May 23, 2020
Well glad it turn out for the better.
#29: Jota (jota) on May 23, 2020
Twice happy I guess.
