A Mother's Answered Prayer

Mothers pray from the first day they hold their baby daughters that they will marry a good man. The one my daughter married is so far beyond what I ever dreamed. This man loves his wife and children so deeply, I am inspired to love more just watching him. This quiet gentle man changes diapers, folds laundry, plays many instruments, goes to work, goes to school, runs marathons and climbs mountains. And, no he isn't superman, but almost!
But in spite of all his accomplishments, it's the way he loves that has won my heart. He's real clear about it. Family first. Every mother's greatest prayer for her daughter.
Oh, and did I mention, he's a Yankee fan?
