He talked to me openly and comfortably about the importance of keeping myself pure until marriage. We discussed how I should date and why I should date that way and how boys think and how to not tempt them and about the purpose of marriage and the purpose behind not living like a married person before marriage. Then he presented me with a blessing and a ring. I can forward you the blessing if you give me your email address. It is really beautiful. The ring symbolized my commitment to God, to my dad, and to my future husband to wait. I wore the ring until my dad took it off of me on my wedding day and gave it to my husband. I am very thankful for the way my dad loved me and was so open with me and available to nonjudgmentally talk to me about anything through my youth. And I am not sure that I would have found the kind of husband I have now if it weren't for his loving example. <br /><br />He did the same with my younger sister who is now 20 and is on the same track.Heather Paigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453228999786894106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346740731041269906.post-79628520078897104012010-12-16T17:35:38.325-05:002010-12-16T17:35:38.325-05:00very true well said!
