You’ve invested years in raising your beautiful daughter to see her become a woman, a wife. It’s not easy to let go of one of your best flowers but it’s wonderful that someone who loves her will be taking over the gardening. Now, your daughter has finally got the opportunity to share what she has learned from you with her husband, and she cannot wait. Mother, you’ve taught her how to be a lady. She watched you carefully to become a wife. She experienced your love to one day become a mother. You’ve taught her how to clothe her family like a good dressmaker. Sir, you became a tape measure that she’ll use to measure her husband. But most importantly she learned what to expect from a man as you’ve carved it in her mind like a skilled carpenter. The love you displayed before her eyes for her mother, your wife, has certainly made it easy for her to submit to love. On this special day, as emotional as it is, this is the moment you’ve been waiting for. It’s a time to watch your daughter, as she enters a union to build a family as an extension of you. I can see the joy in your eyes. Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, somebody said, “It is written when children find true love, parents find true joy. Here’s to your joy and ours from this day forward.”
