when we have a daughter and she gets married, she won't have to go through this.

she'll have someone there to foot the bill and to go with her to pick out the little things...like a veil or a garter.

so when the spirit of discouragement comes upon me, i have to bind it and remember that we are laying the foundation for generations to come.  our union is laying the foundation for an inheritance to be left behind for future generations of our family....we are the building blocks....

we are the building blocks.
