Excuse to Meddle?

Rachelle and Dan's wedding could not have been more lovely, just as I knew it would be. Every detail was thought through and the flowers, dresses, food, and the cake were perfect and beyond beautiful. Aside from that, the love that Rachelle and Dan have for one another is so precious. They both really love the Lord and made a point to include that in their ceremony.
I am going to share deeply personal moment with you; that is my greatest wish for my kids. That they will find just the right person who also loves the Lord and they can at least have that to bind them together to begin their journey together. I don't think any of our kids are close to making a lifelong commitment to someone, but really, what would I know? Kids keep that stuff to themselves when it comes to parents. I really try not to get involved in the kids personal lives. They usually end up thinking it's just because I am their mom that I have a strong opinion about something or someone. So being at the wedding confirmed for me what I have been thinking about for awhile. I am going to meddle this one time.
Rich is so sick of me mentioning this that he actually told me to go ahead, I knew I could wear him down. Here's the story. There is a great guy that works in our office, a recent grad from Messiah. I have long suspected that he and Lauren would really like each other if they ever had the opportunity to meet each other. I have been rolling it around in my mind for sometime so after this weekend I decided I would make the move. I casually mentioned something to Ben about where Lauren works when she works at the restaurant and threw in that they have 10 cent wings on Mondays thinking food would get a guy every time. Who knows but I have never really felt so strong about something like this. I don't know what will happen, but I have given myself permission to meddle this one time. I told Ben we never have to speak of it again. If it works out good, if not, no big deal, but I had to try. Weddings get you like that, you want to see everyone happy.
