Well my daughter got married this weekend. It was perfect! There’s not one thing I would change if I had it to do over. I really can’t believe it came off so well. The weather was amazing. (71 degrees F in December.)
When I was diagnosed with this dreadful disease this was one life moment that I was afraid I would miss. I made it. Now I will set another milestone date to meet. I have another daughter that I want to see get married. And I can’t wait to have some grand babies.
I just wanted to share a picture of my beautiful daughter on her wedding day.
The ferns in the back are mine that I put at our church. They are the only plants I’ve ever been able to make live. Haha. That’s the court yard in front of our fellowship hall. I had white poinsettias put out in the flowerbeds. I’ll share a picture later this week of our little family church. It was just beautiful too.
Sending you all warm Christmas wishes from South Georgia.

Hi Stacy,
Thank you so much for sharing. Your daughter looks beautiful! What a wonderful milestone to get to see your daughter get married. I’m sure you will get to enjoy many more blessings.
What a beautiful picture! Your daughter looks stunning and the setting is perfect. I am so glad the day went well and you have such happy memories. Here's to all future happiness ❤
Love your sign off “ Blessings”. I feel like I’ve been on this board for so long. Your sign off is so familiar to me it’s “plum” comforting. Thank you for your sweet comment.
She looks stunning and so happy. Yes setting another mile stone sounds great!
Wonderful! She looks fabulous. Your ferns are a lovely backdrop. I’m so glad you enjoyed this milestone
Hi StayshaYou have a stunningly beautiful daughter...so pleased the day went well
My younger daughter got married last September (2019) and I fretted for months before as I wasn’t well but it turned out really super
My friend has a daughter who has had a baby and I would love one of my girls to have one...my other girl has been married 3years...I was surprised how jealous (almost in a nasty way) of my friend I am and it’s not like me but I really doubt I’ll be around for that event and every time I think of what I’ll miss I burst into tears so I admire your positive attitude and want to be more like that but find it difficult to imagine ...you’ve made me think!
I’m so glad you commented. You are one of the first to “draw” me in on this board. I remember seeing the picture of you and your daughter on her wedding day. I think I was jealous of you that day. You looked so beautiful and so did she.
I am doing pretty well for the moment to the point I think most of my family and friends have forgotten what I have. I actually am glad about that. I hate thinking about cancer. It makes me mad then I burst into tears. Typing this is actually making me tear up.
I think we are all sad. You’re not alone in that thinking. It is what it is. I try to “make it” from one moment to the next. As I was wrapping presents I wonder if I’ll be here next year. My best friends daughter (my god daughter) is getting married next Christmas. Will I be there to help her like she helped me? As I say things like that my mind always goes there... will I be here?
I guess we just have to live for the moment and enjoy what we’ve been given.
I hope you enjoy Christmas this year and I pray we are all here to enjoy Christmas next year.
Your daughter is just beautiful and I am so happy for you and your family to be able to have this special day. I hope you will meet all of your milestones. I, too, am hoping to be able to see my son get married at sometime in the future and enjoy time with grandchildren.
How beautiful! How lucky you are. Really happy for you. I really can relate I have 2 daughters 20 and 22 I would be so grateful to be at their wedding!
Your daughter is beautiful and the setting looks amazing . I am looking forward to seeing more pictures. I am a bit of a wedding enthusiast, being a florist for 25 years it gets in your blood lol. I am so glad that you were feeling well and participated in the planning fun.
So lovely. So happy for you that you got to be there for the celebration. I am with you on wishing a baby grandchild soon! If they only knew how we mothers commiserate! Sending lots of good wishes,
What a beautiful bride! And beautiful memories!! So happy for you! The setting for this photo is so lovely! Can’t wait for wedding photo of your second daughter! God bless you, Stacy! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💗💗
So beautiful! And so wonderful to have a joyous occasion to celebrate these days. Hope the grandkids are not far after! My kids are much younger, one in middle school and one in high school. My immediate goal is to make it at least until they both graduate high school. When I get there, we’ll think further ahead. If I think too far ahead, the fear and sadness start to come up. Have to admit I’m so happy for you but a bit jealous too.
Besides your daughter's wedding picture, there is no doubt she is as lovely and beautiful inside and out as you are. My daughter is 23 and I brag " Yep, I made that" Praise God for this memory. I saw my daughter graduate with her Masters "online". Nothing like seeing your daughter roll across stage in an Ipad with wheels. LOL
I'm new to this board with the dreadful disease as well. I'm 56. One thing we have in common is I live in Arizona and all my ferns are fake !!! For some reason, I can't even keep my fake plants alive but we do have many cactuses. Be very proud of every moment and don't forget to laugh.
Heart hugs to you and your GORGEOUS daughter. Merry Christmas to boot.
