pegkerrWhen I came downstairs this morning, this was the picture that was on display in the digital frame that Fiona and Alona gave me for Christmas. Seeing it gave me a great deal of comfort, as if it were a sign that Rob was sending his love.
I was pretty pleased with my appearance. I think I polished up pretty well.
The wedding was in a lovely private club in Summit Avenue in St. Paul. Delia was Fiona’s attendant and in fact walked with her down the aisle.
I didn’t take very many pictures during the ceremony because I was using my phone to record the ceremony. Fiona and Alona wrote their own very moving vows. They incorporated a hand fasting braided cord (blue, green, and brown), and seven meditations on love from various writers. At the end, they both stomped on a cloth-covered glass and we all cried ‘Mazel Tov!’
There were hors d'oeuvres and cake and champagne, music and conversation and dancing. There was a lot of joy. Alona’s sister Mary and Delia gave moving speeches.
It was a wonderful day. I am delighted with my new daughter-in-law and overjoyed by this new addition to our family.
Edited to add: Check out the mood icon. For once, this line from Pride and Prejudice is absolutely perfect.

How old are your daughters now? I still remember back when they were, like, 8 and 10, washing their faces in the morning dew on May 1. And now Fiona is married!!
