On October 22, 1986, I had one of my greatest dreams come true: my daughter, Miyoko, was born in Paris, France when I was just 22 years old. And 26 years later, on May 5, 2013, I had another one of my greatest dreams come true: Miyoko married Jason Williams, the man of her dreams.
It is a dream come true for me, because Miyoko prayed for this day since she was a teenager, and I prayed for this day everyday of Miyoko's life since her birth. I am so unbelievably blessed to see this day come to pass before my eyes. Miyoko was the most beautiful bride I have ever seen in my life, not just outwardly but inwardly in her spirit. She had her first kiss on her wedding day as she was determined to keep herself pure for her husband, though she has had three boyfriends! She is a hero to me and a shining light in my life. On top of all of this, I gained a son, Jason, who is a man of integrity and deep love. He has won my heart through his faithfulness to Miyoko. He takes care of Miyoko as I would and is concerned for her as much as I am. He lets her shine and makes her shine even brighter than before by his devotion and patie. I am convinced that their marriage will be one that lasts for a lifetime. Thank you God for this incredible blessing in my life!!!
