I have a couple to share.Our youngest DD's husband was ...to be polite...a lazy bum :-) who caused the family a lot of grief.

After 3 yrs,she wrote us a letter that started out"Mom & Dad, I never wanted,nor expected to be divorced.I planned to have the kind of marriage you have, but can no longer live this life & will file for divorce this wk".
From there, it went on with her plans for after.Still have that letter.A yr later she met the man she went with for a yr & married.She's 43 & married 21yrs.
Both DDs knew I put a lot of thought into any cards I sent,the verse or added message being important.
Yesterday,we received an Anniv card from the oldest ,with phrases underlined & a couple lines she wrote. My sweet girls......This is a great thread ......sweet,sad & happy.
