Today is supposed to be my dream wedding. Since I am already married, I thought I would get a bit more personal and talk about why my wedding day is not the most meaningful day of mine and Mike's marriage.
Mike was not an active member of the church (LDS). Because of this, we had the typical, family and friends wedding.
Years down the road, Mike had decided to go back to church. He approached me about preparing to attend the temple and be sealed together.
The LDS church believes that the Lord wants families to be together forever. Through the power of the priesthood, the Lord allows us to be sealed to our spouses and families for eternity in the temple. Unlike your typical civil marriage- there was no "til death do you part" read during our sealing.
Our sealing not only made our marriage eternal, but now, our FAMILY is eternal. Grayson was born within that sealing and will be sealed to us for eternity as our son.
I am so grateful that Mike and I were able to go together to the House of the Lord and make our union eternal.
