7. Both of my sons-in-law had talked to us before

Of course, both couples had been talking about marriage prior, so it was no surprise. One was about to move in together.

And they did not ask for permission; we are all christians, but of the moderate to liberal kind. They came to both of us, told us they were going to propose with "the ring," and asked for our blessing. I remember those conversations well, because we were able to have a truly serious moment with each of them and tell them we loved them and were excited that they were going to be a part of our family.

Lord almighty, one waited like three weeks before actually proposing. I thought I was going to explode
