The Bride and Groom Were Giggling

I attended a wedding where the bride and groom were giggling Everything seemed to be a secret between the two of them. They looked way too young to be married, and they probably were. I was the mother of the bride, and I thought she was too young Even though she was five years older than I had been when I married My husband kept saying how much he wanted to get out of there But we were stuck up front, because we were the parents so we stayed The reception was terrific. My sister kept telling me to stop dancing. She was afraid at my age I might have a heart attack. We are the same age, we are twins. I thought this was hilarious. I may have overdone it. I was hospitalized three days later. For pneumonia; it was the coldest weather I had ever seen. We had to leave our daughter in Omaha, with her new family. We are glad now. For we have six darling grandchildren And a son-in-law who has taken great care of our baby. If you can, go to a wedding where the bride and groom are giggling.

Giggling, eh?! That's why they marry young. Otherwise they see that marriage is no laughing matter -- except as grist for the comedian's mill. ~ Laffy-Daffy

This is so sweet Caren and perfect to share for Valentine's Day. I am also a twin. We are identical but nothing alike in our personalities. I am happy you have six grandchildren and that your giggling daughter and son in law have a rich happy life. I loved this Caren! xxoo

They did know. And they were right.
