WOW! I can’t believe it’s already happened! Our daughter Megan is got married just a few days ago! So, in light of this HUGE life transition, we thought we would do an episode talking about the realities parents experience when a daughter or son gets married! Plus we are answering a bunch of questions we have gotten over years whenever a child has grown up and moved out or gotten married. We get that not many people talk very much about this season in their young adults lives. We know this to be true because we sure would have loved some transparent and honest reflections and good role models for us to glean from as we were raising our children, to help us ponder, question, reason, and then develop our convictions with confidence instead of from a perspective of “ugh… this is an experiment, we haven’t seen many people do this in a way we would want to mimic.” That being said, we aren’t perfect by any stretch of the imagination and we are always learning a lot… we are just willing to talk about it.
So, I hope you enjoy this candid behind the scenes chit chat between Isaac and I reflecting on all we have learned and parenting lessons for the teenage years while it’s all fresh in our mind.
