update on a family drama issue

I am so excited and want to share how much closer my mom and I have become in recent weeks. I finally got up the nerve to tell her that i really disliked the rabbi my mom found for us and I held my own in arguing taht I just want a justice of the peace. She agreed and in return, I agreed to learn more about my religion and background to get better understanding of it now that I am an adult. I didn't promise that I was going to be more religious or anything, I just told her that I was going to open my mind and relearn my religion and but aside my biases from negative expereinces I had from hebrew school.
The best thing about this wedding process has been how I have been forced to redefine my relationships with my family. Anyway, that's how things are now. It's good to recognize the positive times too.

That's great Sarah!! Having a good relationship with your family always gives you a great feeling inside... Sometimes they don't come through for you but when they do- it's the best! I am so happy that you and your mom are closer now! Thanks for the update!

That is so fantastic! You hear so many girls saying how planning their weddings just drives them and their parents apart. I'm so glad to hear that it's having a positive effect for you. I'm sure your mom really appreciates your effort too. Keep us updated on the planning!!
