What I got for Christmas

Just have to share.
My DS #2 is now engaged so I guess you could say I got a future daughter for
Christmas!! I had no idea an engagement was going to happen but we are very
pleased. No date set but they are saying 2005.

We had a quiet Christmas Eve with our 2 boys. Got up Christmas morn and
opened our gifts, then DS #2 went to his girlfriend's place and opened gifts
with them. DH and I and DS #1 went over later for the day and that's when
we found out about the engagement. DH and I had not met the GF parents
before but it was a lovely day and much excitement.

About a month ago DS had asked the Dad (and her brother) if he could marry
his daughter so her family knew what was going to happen on Christmas Day.

This is the 3rd engagement on DH side of the family in 6 weeks, and the
first on my side, so much excitement for all.

What a nice way to go about it! Involving all the family like this says
a great deal about their comfort with you all, and with each other.
Good prognosis for their future! Give them my congratulations.

Thanks Kate. I will do that.
Considering DS is 22, I was impressed he asked the Dad for his daughter's
hand. Makes a Mom doubly proud.
