19. I think you are going to learn a lot from her, if you will let her teach you.

Many of us end up having to mourn a bit of what we thought our kids might be. The important thing is that we realize that disappointment belongs to US - it's OUR baggage to deal with and we need to make sure that the kids themselves are never made to feel like they are some kind of disappointment, defective or wrong.

This young woman can teach you how to look beyond what you wish she would be to make you happy and instead learn to simply wish for her happiness, realizing that only she can know what that will look like.

This young woman can teach you that if some "friends" make you ashamed of a young lady you love - they ain't friends.

This young woman can teach you that love really can conquer all, if you let it.

Best of luck to both of you. :grouphug:
