Arranged Marriage

I just wanted to show off my future daughter-in-law. Isn't she precious? This is my friend Kate's daughter, Esme. Sam and Esme met in Majuro and hung out almost daily, being hauled around town together by their moms. A relationship quickly blossomed and they became engaged in the lobby of our hotel.
See how they're holding hands in the pic below? We didn't make them do that. Esme reached down and put her little hand in Sam's- in acceptance of his proposal, no doubt.

Aren't they a cute couple?

Awww...ok, I am sooo dense and never put it together that you knew Kate!! She was with my agency for Vietnam but logged in after us (so didn't make the deadline) and we have chatted for two years! LOVE all the pics : )

Well yes, she is a cutie. Congratulations to the happy couple!
Esme! A dear teen friend who sometimes babysits for us has the same name. I don't hear it too often, and I smiled when I saw that Sam's fiancee has the same name. :)

Well, at least Sam got that pesky dating scene out of the way early. Now he can focus on more important issues, like drooling and walking..
