ANOTHER FAMILY WEDDING
Tomorrow Colin and I drive to Pensacola along with loads of other members of our family.
Once again it is a family wedding. Oh, how we love weddings. This Saturday Vision Allison (Serene and Sam’s son and our grandson) will marry Eden Hartman (Daniel and Allison Hartman’s daughter).
We are already blessed to have an Allison/Hartman couple. Cedar Allison is married to Halle Hartman, and they now have a precious little girl called Lael. Now another brother is marrying another sister! So exciting.
I’d love to share what Allison (the mother of the coming bride) wrote on her Facebook:
“It’s possible . . . to “rejoice in the wife of your youth” (Proverbs 5:18). To have love so sweet and pure as these two, go through a long-distance relationship for three years, all the while protecting your purity, even saving their first kiss for the wedding day!
It’s possible . . . to raise the standards for your children and not lower the bar to what the world is accepting. Don’t accept anything less than the best, and God’s ways are the best (1 Cor 7: 1, 2).
It’s possible . . . for young people to value modesty and purity and practice it and not give into their peers.
This amazing young man, Vision Allison (yes, he is Cedar’s brother) asked us to get to know Eden with the intentions of marriage about three years ago. In a few days those intentions will come true. We are so excited to see what God has planned for these two and we are so proud of them!”

P. S. Let me encourage you mamas & daddies, and young singles. It is possible, and it is worth it. It saddens me so much to see these sweet girls wearing prom & even wedding dresses that I can’t even show my boys or husband because it’s showing so much flesh!
We can do better!
Let’s make modest hottest!
