Dancing in the rain (4 posts before going private)

The first three rain days we played on the tarp. Remember that post. It was fun!

Aren't they cute?? I think Mr. Incredible and I are going to have to dance in the rain on the next rainfall.



YEP! I am ABSOLUTELY positive that Mr. Incredible and I will be dancing in the rain!

NEXT time! ::oh please let it rain soon and please let Mr. Incredible be home::

I remember young love. I remember being carefree and dating Mr. Incredible.

I remember doing something sneaky to Mr. Incredible.


and reacting the same way!


And jumping with both feet in! Isn't it great to have youth on your side?

I like this girl. It has only taken me two years to truly like her. I liked her because she was Warrior's girlfriend. I was polite, but now I like her on her own merit.
I like her because.....
I have finally seen the young woman that she is.
She is good, she is honest, she is praise worthy.
she wants the same things for Warrior that I want for him.
she wants him to serve a mission.
the same boundaries that Warrior has she has.
she doesn't pressure Warrior.
she is a recent convert of 3 years or so.
she chooses to go to church by herself at times. She used to attend the Spanish unit until our Ward was changed to her building. She lives in our ward boundaries but she has the choice to attend the Spanish unit or ours.
She is article of faith 13.
she wants the best for my boy too.
her heart will break when he leaves for college, like my own.
She has taught me how to make duct tape roses.

I'm not shouting wedding bells. My eyes aren't clouded by love. I see clearly. I'm just saying for his first true girl friend he has chosen well. The bar has been set and it has been set well. I'm just sayin.... I remeber my first true love. Do you?

You are so lucky that your son has a girlfriend that has the same values and wants the best for him!

I actually married my first love, we married young, barely out of our teens!

Jan said...

She sounds worthy of a warrior. Awesome.

CB said...

LOVE the pictures - Ahhhh Young love is so sweet!

You put it perfectly when you said that the bar has been set high - that is a good thing. She sounds like a lovely girl and you never know.....

They are a beautiful couple! The first picture you shared is incredibly sweet! How fun to be sharing the puddles with someone you care so deeply for!

Lisa said...

They are so cute! The pictures are very tender and sweet. It's funny you should mention first boyfriends. I've been thinking a lot lately about sending his family/parents a thank you note for being so good to me and such a good influence. It's only been 20 years. Think it's too late?

I love her too Mother Goose. I love her smile and her good attitude about life. IF, she and Warrior ever do marry what lucky children they would have to have such happy, faithful, kind parents. They are two people I would trust with my little girls and that is saying something! You have done so well with him-- (and the your other cute kids too!)

More Than Words said...

Oh my gosh, I love those pictures of them!!!!!!!!!! I know that they will really cherish them!!!!!!!! Sooooo cute!!!!!!!!

She sounds like a fabulous young woman!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember when my oldest son was little, he told us that when he gets older he wants a girl that wears alot of make up and loves God!!! LOLOLOL!!

Seriously, how darling are those photos?

Wow...I think I am dancing in the rain next time too.

It would be so nice to feel young love again.

Jen said...

Ah, to be a kid again playing in the rain! I'm whistling the tune "I'm singing in the rain" right now as I read your blog!

Cynthia said...

Beautiful pictures! I want her legs!

I'm glad his first girlfriend is a positive experience and a beautiful person inside and out.

That was NOT my experience. My first real boyfriend had been off a mission for 2 weeks when I met him and he's the one who taught me that the title of RM doesn't necessarily mean anything good. What a sleezeball he was! Still, it taught me all about how to spot a quality man because it would be everything said RM wasn't.

Tiffany and hers said...

What beautiful words!! And pics of course. I'm sorry I've been out of the loop lately- didn't know you were going private so keep me posted when you do!

Unknown said...
