Otherwise Occupied

I have been remiss in blogging recently, but I do have an excuse - and a very good one.

My daughter got married and I had the absolutely wonderful experience that so many fathers have had of walking his little girl down the aisle. And it was even better than I thought it would be - all the clichés about how proud a father is, about how amazing it is that the little girl has grown up into a radiant woman, etc etc etc - are all absolutely true.  

Walking down the aisle, I had a very hard time keeping things together - a rush of emotions swirled around and I kept telling myself to stay composed and put one foot in front of the other so as not to take anything away from her.

And the amazing thing is that my other daughter will be married in a few weeks - so I get to have the wonderful experience all over again !  How lucky can a guy get.
