Edelweiss, After watching your incredible video I have several comments!

1.) My goodness you have a distinguished looking, handsome husband.

2.) Was that your mom in the print top with redish brown hair?

3.) Your sons are both strapping "good" looking men.

4.) A looks so much like her, hunk of a father, it really shows in the video.

5.) Never saw A's mom before, she is nice okay but A doesn't look like her.

6.) Your other DIL, the new babies mom, looks like a very pleasant, sweet person who would love and appreciate you.

7.) You can see in the video what a wonderful time everyone had. Maybe with some dancing lessons your little A might become a dancer for real.

Thanks Dee for posting these so we could all share in this glorious moment.

Haha Dee! You beat me to the punch! You are so sweet to post this for me, thank you.

Hope the video isn’t “stuttering”. Sometimes you have to just run it through once, and the second time it is smoother.

Thank you Nancy. My oldest son married into a huge family. There were about 80 guests there. We didn’t all fit on the alter for the group picture. Lol. We are blessed that our very small family could grow in leaps and bounds with them. My DIL’s father played guitar in the church, and the songs were absolutely beautiful.

Chatty, my dear husband even made a special effort to sit by my mother and keep her company. He has finally accepted and realized how important that is to me. Yes that’s my mom with the print top and the reddish brown hair. She managed to spend the whole morning and afternoon with us. The lady, next to her, is my DIL’s grandmother. She is a precious lady and loves to sing. Infact, the whole family loves to sing, and usually end up reading their grandmother’s lips, because she knows the lyrics to every German song written. Lol

I’m so proud of Mike, the father of Manuel and Michael. He is going back to college to get his degree in business management. And Danny, “A’s daddy, just opened his own commercial real-estate business in Muenich. Whew…is all I can say.

Chatty, I have a very good relationship with both of my DIL’s. I have learned to keep my mouth shut and just smile. Sort of like a grandma doll. Lol.
Eva, Mike’s wife, (parents of Manuel and Michael) is a wonderful Mom. She warms many hearts with her laughter and her own generous heart.
My son, Danny, understands and even supports the fact that his wife is very close to us. We are her only family here in Germany, and through our granddaughter we have regular contact.

It's so much fun sharing with you. I love my online friends.

And I love that you share.

Loved the birds tweeting, beautiful photos of the church, and then seeing the little snowball of a gorgeous baby.

I noticed so many smiles, especially the proud dad, your son. Wow, he looks so wrapped up in the moment.

Totally enjoyed seeing your mom whom I've prayed for . It's nice to put a face with those prayers.

One of my favorite photos was of your hubby and son (father of the baby). Their smiles are coming through the screen. Also, enjoyed seeing you as the only adult at the kids table!

You are so blessed by your family, and we are so blessed that you so willingly share yourself with us!
