Seems while Kiddo was in China, she met her soul mate, and it just happened that he was coming to America to study for a Master's Degree in August 2010 in San Francisco. Naturally, August came and Kiddo was off to California.
In September 2012, Kiddo called and said "Guess what? We are getting married - the day after Christmas. Can we do it at home?"
I have never seen Kiddo so in love, so what could I say? I called my cousin in NJ, an ordained minister, a few other relatives and friends, and the day after Christmas, Kiddo became Mrs. Kiddo and here is the happy couple:
What does all this have to do with KidLitCon 2014? Well, I am in San Francisco visiting the Kiddos and we have been have lots of fun, but I finally had to take a morning to catch up with life. Unfortunately, my travel budget only allowed for one trans-continental trip and I already had this reservation before the KidLitCon 2014 announcement. So, sadly, I will not be going to Sacramento. Had I known earlier, I would have come here in October, but I hope everyone has fun and that those who are going will share their experience with the rest of us.
I can't make it to the Con this year either - transcontinental trips are tough!
ReplyDeleteBut on a happy note, YAY for your daughter and her love! That's a great photo. :)
Maybe KidLitCon will come east soon, or at least mid-country. It was so much fun last time I went.
DeleteI have to be honest, I thought my Kiddo was a little young to get married, but I have never seen her so happy.
Wonderful, romantic story! They look so happy. Just loved this!
ReplyDeleteI am sorry you won't be able to make it to KidLitCon (me either). Hopefully next year it will be in a location that works a little better for you. Glad you are getting to visit Mr. and Mrs. Kiddo. :) What a lovely romance story.
