Sojourner Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 [quote name='apparently' date='15 October 2009 - 07:49 AM' timestamp='1255607374' post='1985793'] ~ it made my mother happy, in fact she cried with joy at our wedding. ( it was the first time i ever saw her cry) ~ (my mom again) she gained a daughter, grandchilden, and an answer to her novena. [/quote] to the above. I know my marriage brought a lot of happiness to my parents. I will never forget seeing my dad's face as he got ready to escort me down the aisle. It was really moving.

I think he likes having someone else to buy things for him so he never has to think about it. And I like buying things for him, so it all works out.
