OUR IDYLLIC CHATEAU WEDDING!

- This is a story of a romance that spanned continents and proof that love can blossom at any age. For one unforgettable day, the chateau was enchanted in a midsummer night's dream, and love reigned supreme!
I'm so excited about this video! I can finally reveal Mummy and Percy's idyllic wedding, which took place here at the Chateau de Lalande. Because it had been filmed for the British TV show, 'Escape to the Chateau DIY', I couldn't show it until it had been aired - I didn't want to spoil the surprise for the viewers! But it was broadcast this week, so here are the official photos and the story of the most magical day that we've ever experienced at the chateau. A truly fairytale wedding!
This wedding was a triumph of the Lalande spirit - everyone joined together and shared their talents and creativity to create something truly special.

I want to share something. It’s been a rough month; I’ve been separated from my mum for ages as she is immunocompromised, my country has been on lockdown for a long long time, and even beyond that my outlook on life has been pretty cynical and bitter. I think I was a bright and happy child, once. Now I feel resentment for the very birds singing outside my window. An aching-bone kind of solitude and disconnection, a detachment from the world. For a long time I closed my heart to things I loved; things I considered pretty and lovely now felt empty, shallow and frivolous. I could feel myself turning.. not gray, per se, but neutral. Neutral makeup on neutral clothes, neutral expression on my face that can neither be mistaken for a smile or a frown. Stark utilitarian minimalism is the way to go, downsize this scale-down that. Bare minimum. Get by. Low expectations means less disappointment.
And then I found you. Your channel, your smile, your infectious joy of living and unabashed love of pretty trinkets that are sometimes just pretty trinkets. For God’s sake, you lived in a French chateau. Such a far-removed life from me, climbing the corporate ladder, running the rat race in the big city. You, with a genuine reverence for history, art for art’s sake, and a connection to people long gone... I’ve noticed recently that I smile a bit more. I put ribbons in my hair, I didn’t even know I still kept those. I allowed myself chocolate, and wearing silk blouses even though I’ll just be in the house. It’s nice and cool, I like the way it feels against my skin. Like defiance against indifference. Thank you. I like it here. You have made my quarantine bearable.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this comment. It's really resounded with me. Because I was also a happy, bright child, always optimistic. And that lasted until my father's death in 2009. But for a full eight years (!) after that, I lost myself. I would wake up feeling tentative, afraid at whether I'd be happy or sad that day. Insignificant losses would overwhelm me with grief, and things that used to bring me joy would seem grey. And then, very suddenly, one day, after eight years, I woke up feeling better, and instantly knowing that it would last. I was 'back'. It's the strangest thing. Shortly afterwards, I started filming for the UK show and making these vlogs, and that solidified my recovery. Sometimes we need to see our lives from the outside to realise how lucky we are. So if my videos are doing anything to help you find happiness in the little things, that really means a lot to me. We can be our own worst enemies in blocking ourselves from seeing the beauty in the world around us!
Hi @Lia, wherever you are, hang in there. I can relate to what you are saying, better days are coming! Big hug from the Netherlands.
Lia, I've been a nurse for 24yrs, I've worked Trauma, ER, Cardiac, I've seen the worst, I've lived through unbearable stress and mental and physical torture all for the sake of my craft, nursing. I was also a travel nurse for 10yrs, I've been all over the USA and I've seen quite a lot of pain and suffering. I was like you, exhausted, drained, flat affect and just done! While I was in Rhode Island on my last ever assignment I brought along my Pomeranian Daisy, I stayed in Federal Hill the historic district, which was enchanting. I walked the dog one morning and her little nose was sniffing the air and she dragged me to the next block, I hit culinary gold! There were resturants and shops will all kinds of goodies!! Daisy, the Pom and I got some sausage and peppers at the one Italian shop and sat in the warm air and had a snack, I then walked further down and found a French pastry shop and bought more goodies, there was also a chocolate shop, I got a few things and bagels and cream cheese for the nurses that night at work. Every day I then went for a walk and explored that interesting city, there were little shops for witches, lol, where I bought scented candles and pretty hand made charms, I traveled to Salem MA to see the where the witch trials took place, the graves, the old houses, escaped over to Cape Cod and had a ball, just me and my Pom. I met so many interesting people and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I knew what I was missing, I forgot how to live life, I forgot how short life was even though I saw death everyday, young and old. I had my nose so deep into nursing and all the trauma that I just forgot there is more to life and I was missing it!! I forgot how to take chances, how to dress with some sparkle, "I was always in scrubs", how to reconnect with the earth and healthy people, I forgot there WERE healthy people!! I met my husband at 45, he was on a game on the internet, we were just friends, at 50 one day he said, "Come to Colorado, I'm in love with you!" I sold the house in SC, packed up and off I went, I never thought twice, I took a chance and we are together still, I'm 58 and we are still best friends and in love. I gave up work and now I call myself a kept woman, LOL! I garden, cook, clean, take care of pets and my husband and I have learned how to live life again. So, I guess what I'm trying to say is, sparkle, always sparkle! Wear a sparkly top or jewelry, or makeup or whatever makes you feel good! I have let my hair grow to my waist, it's white/silver and waves, I wear pretty sparkly hair clips, I've turned into a free spirit and I've trained myself to stop worrying, I walk with my head high to see everything around me, I turned off the cell phone, I make direct eye contact with people, I smile and say, "hello!" if they don't say hello back I don't care!! LOL!! Stephanie truly is the embodiment of, Live, Love, Laugh, she is truly delightful and adds to my life! God bless and stay well!
Lia Your comment was beautifully written and very insightful. Having been through some intense trauma, including a cancer diagnosis at age 33, 7 months of weekly chemotherapy, and horribly mutilating surgeries, it struck a chord with me. It can be hard to celebrate what is good, when the pull to endlessly mourn what has been lost feels so ever-present. I’m no expert, however for me regaining my spark has seemed to come down to doing my best to choose to see the good, the possibility, the happiness and the beauty in the world around me wherever I can, when I am able to. I wish you all the best💗
The Chateau Diaries Stephanie, I’ve just arrived at the moment in this vlog where you mention that your mother had cancer in her mid forties, and it immediately brought me to tears. I was diagnosed at age 33, and have now been in remission 18 months. As I’m sure your mother knows, it is a very dark, heavy thing to endure cancer treatment and be grappling with one’s mortality, especially at such a young age. But the tears I’m crying are mostly due to the fact that your mother who is so vivacious and adventurous and industrious and delightful and full of life that I never would have imagined she’d also had cancer, has not only survived, but also thrived for so many years afterward, it gives me hope. It really does. Thank you both💗
I am I tears. What you did for your mother and Percy was such an incredible and loving act. I also got married when I was older and people thought it was ridiculous or did not even care. You are a wonderful daughter.
That’s so silly of them. You were lucky to find love ❤️
@@TheChateauDiaries Very lucky, but we are also apart because of the virus.
Romance and true love is not age restricted ! ❤️
Your father cannot be anything but terribly proud of you and I am sure he has always been. He and your mummy brought you up so perfectly.
OH MY! Your mother is an absolute treasure!! Good call, Lady Lalande, for deciding to host percy! Like your mum, you are precious!
I just have to stop after only seven minutes to express what a fantastic daughter you are and your sentiment on love. Now I will continue to watch 👍🏼😀
Monica Teeling that’s exactly what I did, paused it after 5 minutes to comment! Then continued to watch...
completely agree!! wonderful daughter!!
Absolutely, wonderful, I totally agree.
I did that too! What a tribute she gives to her Mother, her father, to life. I interrupted to email my friend, AGAIN, to just watch the beginning of this video if nothing else. I didn't even know what the rest of it said. Stephanie's honesty about her life is moving. I do worry that if she hits a hard spot, she'll have trouble continuing her story in public. But I think she will find a way.
Just a WONDERFUL show. Very sweet family
Since i have found you’re channel the dream of owning a chateau has grown and grown. Now my days are filled with watching these videos and love every second of it. Much love from Belgium 🥰
would love to know more about you dream, I to am thinking the same, how where when and with who!
Me too! 😉
Me too watching these videos has formed a big dream of owning a chateau
Me too!! Also dreaming of a chateau, here in Belgium!!!
Caroline De Meyer In België zijn er nog wel veel maar vaak renaissance. Persoonlijk vind ik 18de eeuws mooier
Stephanie: "What theme combines great theatricality with nature and love?"
Me: "Oh oh oh! A midsummer night's dream!"
Stephanie: "A midsummer night's dream."
Me: "YESS!"
🙌
Sophia Holmes I said the same thing to my hubby as we watched!
I shouted it out, too! Woke my husband!
What a special story of how your mother and Percy met. And you and the others for giving them that special day.
This is the sweetest thing I've ever seen. And so magical! I would love to hear Percy's side of their meeting story. And what he thought when he rolled up to a chateau! Haha!
Stephanie did not understand the urgency.. that had me spilling my coffee with laughter.. you made my day!
Yesss she is so right 😂 there is no time to waste 😂😂😂❤❤❤
😁😄😄
🤣🤣🤣
I'm retired with nothing to offer other than views, thumbs up and watching ads.
I love seeing the beautiful places you travel to. And love seeing life at Lalande. Oh, and I wish I could shop at your local charity shops, they are the bomb!
I also would love to visit their charity shops!!
You are a joy to watch, a truly kind, genuine and loving 🥰 soul. You’re Chateau mirrors your class and uniqueness. Of course, you made your father proud. I’m sure you know he’s with you. May you be blessed with so much more. I hope to meet and visit you and Chateau LaLande one day soon 😊
I am Pat Joseph born in the island of St Martin french . May God bless you all . you have so inspired me . Keep the good work. But please slow down
Don't burn yourself out . I love your colors . Love your dishes love flower your bedroom. Most of love personalities very beautiful thank you so much for bless my life. Please don't forget God and his son Jesus who died for us. You very good company for me . I will love to come one day. Love
The wedding was truly beautiful. But the love you and your mother have for each other surpasses everything.
Your Ma, "such a simple woman" (!?) looked amazing. When I watched this on television, I honestly thought how brave you had been, and how much this must have meant, both to you and her. What a wonderful celebration of love, for your Mother and Percy, for you and your mother and for your father. I am sure, if he could tell you, he would tell you that he is very proud of you.
Mummy's statement "such a simple woman" is one of her classic statements and she tries to look so humble when she says it.😂🤣😂🤣
“Poor Mummy having a daughter like me”
“I don’t know where she comes from”
ROTFL!!!
Jajajaja I know right im the same with my mother she is so simple and im not 😂😂😂
Such a beautiful relationship. Reminds me of mine with my daughter. We can say things like that and know that it's all love and then some!
Life would be dull indeed without magic.....I would like to thank you and Michael for bringing a little bit into my life
You did an amazing job on your mother’s wedding to Percy. Can’t believe you won’t be on anymore this season. So enjoyed watching you and what you have done and achieved 😘
Thought I wouldn’t enjoy this as much having just seen escape to the chateau DIY, however I loved it, you offered depth to emotional aspects and greater detail and understanding in this vlog xx
Wow, the most beautiful wedding and wedding decor ever. Your mum looked truly beautiful 💕
Hello Stéphanie! I have been quietly bingeing all of your vlogs this past week, and this has became my favorite corner of the internet full of life and love, a true lesson to appreciate the present. It has inspired me to wear my best clothes at home, and even have a picnic at our rooftop terrace! Your mother is a joy, the wedding looked absolutely heavenly. Greetings from Morocco!
Your RUclips series is bringing me great joy and distraction during this time of isolation. I cant wait for the new series as I'm trying to convince my husband that once this is over, I want to buy or at least visit a French chateau that is being brought back to life. Thank you for sharing your journey. 💗
You did the honourable thing by welcoming Percy! You sure did your father proud & your mother & Percy! Yes he did raise a strong 💪🏼 powerful daughter with a huge heart ❤️!!! What a beautiful & magical day held by all! Thanks for sharing Stephanie ❤️🇨🇦
❤wonderful ❤ love watching all the old video's again. 😊
I had a big smile on my face all the way through !!!
Oh.. Stephanie, Isobelle and Percy's wedding was absolutely magical, everything was perfect, including the cake!
Thank you for sharing all the wonderful details of the day and how they actually met... it will be great to see Percy and the beautiful Marie back at the Chateau .
Just when I thought Chateau life couldn't get any better, you inform us of Michael Pethrick's 'Doing it Ourselves' channel - and now we are getting an extra serve with both of you teaming up to take us all on a vintage Chateau tour though France ..... can't top that!
And by the way, how did you know I was searching 'French Chateaux for sale' ... yes, this is going to be fun!!!
Beautiful story and a beautiful wedding day. The vlog with Michael would've been so fun sorry that that didn't happen. But new doors always open.🦋
I adored watching the bits of video and photos of your mummy's and Percy's wedding both on Escape to the Chateau DIY and here on your vlog. Magical, truly magical! They are so lucky to have such a wonderful, thoughtful daughter as you, Stephanie. It brings tears to my eyes.
I am so looking forward to your and Michael Petherick's new series. It will be amazing. You two have a wonderful chemistry together. Thank you for sharing your positive, generous spirit. It brings joy to so many of us in this difficult time. Thank you!
Just as you described how Isabell and Percy met, and since you two seem to incredible together, it would be great to learn how yours's and Michael's friendship began.
I touched by your mom's wedding story Stephanie. You & your mum are so incredibly special. And all your family and friends who came together to make your mum's day so spectacular. I had tears flowing down my face. Blessings on you all.
Im not crying, you're crying !!!
The new series sounds and absolutely luscious!!! Adore Michael, add your beautiful soul and the French countryside...HEAVEN!! Take care angel, love to all!
What an absolutely wonderful thing to find on my feed!!! Beautifully magical!! So very glad I got to see this, adore Isabel and love Percy 🥰❤️ Blessed LaLande 🙏🥰
Beautiful! So excited for the new series with Michael! Thank you for making these amazing videos!
I think I've died and gone to heaven. Not only Isabelle and Percy's stunning wedding and your fabulous recount of the day but the news that you and Michael are starting a new vlog when all this dreadful virus is over. Don't think I can contain my excitement 💗💗 Just such great news during this very hard time for us all. Michael's new channel is just so good . I hardly watch normal tv at the moment. Roll on post virus and sending love to you Stephanie and Isabelle, also Percy in SA. 💙💙💙
Oh my God, you and your mother are absolutely adorable - I mean, I could watch your videos forever, your accents are wonderful and I am so looking forward to more videos like this
I’m so excited about your new venture on traveling and showing us the many different Chateaus, I love your videos because I love your spirit......🌷❤️
"That's how he hooked her: The Cradle of Mankind" Lol!
What a beautiful fairytale wedding, for two lovely beautiful people. And what a great idea that you and Michael have come up with looking forward to it already.
Such a gorgeous story of how they met!
This was absolutely the best. So happy for the bride and groom!! They are a beautiful couple. You, friends and family were so giving and loving. So blessed to see such a beautiful day!! Thank you and looking forward to the new series! Stay well 🤗❤️
New subscriber here, I am absolutely in love with this channel ❤️ what a magical wedding!
What a delightful “meet cute” story!
Oh my god, you and Michael travelling around French chateaus and introducing them to us is about the best thing ever!!! ❤
Have been waiting to see the story of the wedding, it was so worth the wait! An absolute fairytale from beginning to end. Thank you for sharing.
What a delight. You prove that people with “Jolie de vie” attract more of the same. Thank you for allowing all of us to share in it. Everyone be safe.
What a kind sweet heart you are Stephanie.... "the cradle of mankind" is quite a chat up line Percy... bravo. This has given me great hope, thank you all 😘 😘 😘
The cradle of mankind is just outside Johannesburg.. awesome exhibit of some of the oldest fossils in the world found there
I'm so excited for the new series!! Even more reasons to look forward to the end of lockdown
Absolutely.
Could there be a kinder daughter? I don't think there could be! YOU are so amazing Stephanie! The honor you have given your mother and her new spouse is extraordinary. I like you have a step father that I love. He and my own good mom have passed away, but their marriage is a wonderful memory for me. I also wanted to say that with your permission, I would like to quote you in a book I am writing about love and choosing a spouse. You said, “Finding Love at any age should be celebrated because it is miraculous!” I could not agree with you more! My young 18 year old son found your channel and he shared it with me. While I am not living in anything as huge or magnificent as your beautiful home, I do live in Idaho on the edge of a small town in an 8 bedroom home. I love our home. My spouse built this for me and our children 21 years ago. I love it! We have planted 100 trees here. We only have half an acre but I feel so deeply blessed. The one thing that you have reminded me about today is INSPIRATION! You are so so SO inspiring. Again, while it is not my mission (as it is yours) to redo an huge Chateau, you have indeed inspired me to want my very own home to be beautiful. I think in America especially, we forget that timeless beauty can be brought to any home with some thought and work. My own mother was a designer. I am also creative and currently, as I watched your video today I am working on a design of a lovely daisy and bumblebee garland that I am making for my office here to celebrate spring. I am also opening this fall (God willing with this virus and pandemic!) a small 12 child preschool called "The Busy Bee Preschool." I love bumblebees and so I want to incorporate them throughout our home here. You father's art really is so beautiful and whimsical! What a woman and life you have lived! I want you to know that I appreciate you so much. Here I am sitting in Idaho far from you having only been to France one in my whole life, yet you are encouraging me to create a more lovely space here in my home. Thank you! You are such a lovely person. I wish I had time (and talent) to come there and help you accomplish your dreams! The very best to you in all you do. God must be so deeply proud of you! I am sure your own father is in Heaven and looking down on you and so proud of all that you're becoming! Carry On! You are needed in this world!
A truly lovely celebration for your mother and Percy. Everything looked magical. ❤️
Sending much love to you, your mother and your family. Your father must be very proud of you.
You're absolutely right when one finds love and decides to be married whatever the age it should be celebrated. Your mother is such a positive person and fun too, I could picture her there on the plane sitting next to Percy😊. He seems such a lovely guy and you forbidding her to go to meet him lol. Saw part of the wedding ceremony on ETC DIY it was magical. Can't wait for your other project with Michael yaaaay. Tc and stay safe❤
It felt like an absolute privilege, dearest delight-filled Stephanie, your showing us your precious Mummy and Percy's wedding and everything and everyone it took to bring this sacred event to fruition. I was carried away into fairyland - which, for this pixie-imp, is a dream come true...sigh - and imbibed every single visceral moment of this delectable and divine delight. The clothes, the fairy lights, the arrangements both of flowers and of communal spaces for the day. This was a true family event. What an honour to witness it. A humble and melting thank you for this gift.
All love to you,
Jacqueline from New Zealand xox
Thank you so much Stephanie for sharing this with us. It was so magical, so beautiful, and for someone who had never planned a wedding it is awe inspiring.
Just what I needed to cheer me up tonight... Thank you! Such a joy to hear all your wonderful stories.
The wedding was amazing you all did a grand job, it was a joy to watch I just loved it but then I love everything that you all do so thank you x
Your mom and Percy’s wedding looked just stunning! So much love and beauty in one day!
I’m so thrilled to see your and Michaels new venture together! It’s going to be so magical! As a history lover and an art historian I can’t wait to see all the chateau that are out there.
Maybe one day I will be able to have my own... ❤️❤️
Thank you so much deer Stephanie!! For this magic moments that you bring to us :) !! You are a sun shine to the world...we can't wait for a new blog!!
I absolutely adored this video, thank you so much for putting it together so perfectly. So full of love, community and joy, what we all need right now. You and your Mum always make me smile and it was lovely to see your magical day _ THANK YOU
such a joy to review this !!
I loved seeing more of the wedding, you all did a excellent job!
The new series of vlogs with Michael was a brilliant idea and I can't wait to see them!
Thank you again for the joy you spread to all of us.
Stay safe and well 🌹
I began watching the Château diaries and related content a few months ago. I’m delighted in the transformation of Lalonde since I first discovered it.
However, this episode took the cake! I found myself tearing up and having a huge lump in my throat throughout the recap of your mothers special day.. i’m grateful I only saw this episode for the first time today as I have become so attached to many of the characters and delight in experiencing life at the Château vicariously.
Thank you for sharing this very intimate time with all of us.
One of the greatest things I ever done is find this channel!! I'm so glad you have shared your beautiful life and my favorite your mother to RUclips. You are a wonderful content creator!! Thank you!!!
I loved this Stephanie, how beautiful the wedding was and the memories will last forever.
One of the reasons we like watching your vlogs is that we get to meet so many nice people. The back story to your mum and Percys meeting was lovely. They are such a lovely couple, and you are a great daughter. Nice to see Gerry in his tartan formal wear. He always brightens things up.
Bliss! Pure bliss!! I love experiencing your life through the vlog. So much laughter and magic. Love every little bit of it. And every ‘character’ who joins in. Thank you so much! I appreciate you and your work so very much❣️❣️❣️ And OMG! The wedding!!! Beautiful ❣️❣️❣️
My heart is overflowing with love just watching the wedding of Mummy/Isabelle and Percy. It was gloriously romantic and spectacular❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰
The beginning was such a beautiful message and then the entire video was just lovely. I'm so happy that you shared it with us. You are a fantastic person and I'm so happy that I discovered your channel. Wishing you and your family all good things. :)
I look fwd to your new series, can't wait!!! You my dear are a ray of sunshine in this trying time!
A message of love, hope, and perseverance in this time is like oxygen! 🌸💖
Oh Stephanie that was wonderful. You made me tearful at the beginning talking about your Father but the wedding was beyond magnificent. Happiness was oozing out of all of you and the creative energy amongst you was unbelievable. I wish your Mummy and Percy all the happiness in the world.
Stephanie, you are the chocolate in my day! Such wonderful, joyful videos immediately change my day from drab to fab leaving me smiling. Thanks for all your hard work recording these videos and sharing the laughter and joy of your life. I eagerly await your new series with Michael P.
👍👍2 thumbs up everytime, what a treat to see the photos of the wedding. I found it very moving and emotional how you spoke about your father and the strength and compassion you showed in welcoming Percy into the family. You are a true lady, your Dad is beaming down from heaven ☘
OMG What a beautiful day for a beautiful couple. You are all truly blessed.
I am so excited about your new venture. I hope you will show some of the country on the way and some of the quaint little towns. I can’t wait! Thank you so much, your videos are a beautiful light in our dark days.
So excited about your new joint venture with Michael, I absolutely love both of your vlogs.
That's a really lovely story of your mother and Percy, and extremely sweet of yourself by the way to create something so special for their wedding day. You always make things so wonderful for others, its not a surprise that you are receiving lots of gifts from people around the world. There is just something about you that makes people want to do that. Really enjoying your shows, a real treat. Thanks for sharing this heart warming experience with us, greetings from London x.
Oh the new series sounds delightful. Congratulations again to Percy and Isabel.
Blessings to all.

And thanks also for sharing your mum’s wedding you are a precious daughter who knows how with your family and your now family from Africa throw a special party and make her mum feel like a princess. I admit you already and look forward to seeing what you will do to continue to entertain your fans. Many blessings to you and your wonderful family from California💐
How wonderful. It's so joyous. I love a Happy Ever After!!
Thank you for one of your best vlogs yet. Michael's wedding photos and Marie's floral arrangement were amazing. What a lovely story of everyone working together to create a magic wedding celebration. Thanks, too, for the Marie update. Look forward to the upcoming travel vlog.
So much enjoyed this lovely story, wedding photos and background for this beautiful day! I always look forward to glimpsing in to Lalande with your lovely family and friends. All the best, in these trying times. Hope Percy can rejoin his lovely bride soon.

Loved this whole vlog. Thank you mum for telling the story of how you and Percy met, wonderful. What a beautiful beautiful collaborative day. A day of love and magic xx
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful time. You are a magnificent story teller. I would have been over the moon with a wedding like that! I loved hearing your mother's love story. What a heart of gold you have for putting so much time and love into your mother's big day. Honestly, your channel is one of my favorites here in RUclips and is definitely adding a bit of happiness to this "lockdown" we're all going through.
Thank you for sharing the photos and stories surrounding your Mom's wedding to Percy. Lovely, lovely, lovely. Your thoughts on inviting a step parent into your home and heart after the loss of a beloved father was also touching. Thank you!
You are such an inspiration and I can't wait to see this new series! I've always dreamed of renovating a beautiful old building with my family and it's wonderful to live vicariously through you a little bit. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much for sharing, I can’t wait for the new series
Oh wow I enjoyed that so so much, thank you. I got a bit emotional watching you and your Mum talk about how she met Percy! What beautiful people you all are. Thank you for making me smile! XX
Looks like the perfect wedding. It’s wonderful that your realized chateau dream helped your mother, Percy, family and friends have a perfect day. Such a wonderful gift to your mother. Your new venture with Michael sounds like a winner. Hope your family is doing well with quarantine and that life can go back to something like normal very soon.
This was so spectacular. And your mom looked SO BEAUTIFUL! You did so well, and I love your explanation of moving on and finding happiness at the beggining.
