“As much as you want to plan your life, it has a way of surprising you with unexpected things that will make you happier than you originally planned.” UnknownI stood in the doorway in my pajamas wondering what my hair looked like. What a way to greet my daughter-in-law for the first time since their wedding day.
Yet, through all my surprise - and an understandable amount of embarrassment - they were just as gracious and happy to see us as we were to see them. Instantly bed-head, no makeup, pajamas, and even a few specks of lint on the rug all melted from my mind and diminished in my importance. In retrospect, the unexpected 'casual' greeting set the tone for a familiar, relaxed visit for the whole weekend, and we had an especially memorable time with lots of laughs, great conversation, and plenty of picture-taking.
