A good night to all.

My little girl, the one that had collected Martha Stewart's wedding editions since high school and had always talked about the "BIG AFFAIR", surprised us all by eloping; she did have a change of heart at the last minute and invited us to witness.

Life has so many surprises! I barely know this young man, my new son in law. But the way he looks into my daughter's eyes, tells me all that I need to know.

They were married yesterday. He is a soldier. I pray that the madness of the war stops soon. I was against this insane war from day one, long before it lost popularity from the crowd overflowing with "national pride".

Now, I have so much more at stake. I need for him to return home safely and continue to love my daughter....
