So my little sister got married at 17, just two weeks shy of 18. When she did, it was kind of hard to get used to the idea. My dad and I didn't really like her husband for various reasons. They were also 1000 miles away in Florida. This was 9 months ago.
This weekend, my dad, mom, Kaiden, and I were able to travel to Florida to see my sister. We didn't know what to expect.
More the most part, we are pleased with what we saw. Their marriage was going well and it was clear to see there was an equal partnership, which was a worry for me because I felt he always spoke for her while they had lived up here. I was so happy to see their communication skills in their marriage was great. Dan was so much more tolerable and it was wonderful to see my father and him get along. I'm so sure that it was a big relief and weight off of my sisters shoulders to have them get along as well.
I am so glad we were given the opportunity to visit them and see how they are doing.
The only thing I did not like was the area they were living in, but if that's all they can afford right now, it's still a place to live and I know they are grateful for what they have.
Things have changed, but they have changed for the better and I'm very happy for my sister and brother in law. <3
