There are mixed opinions about the ‘Twilight’ series written by Stephanie Meyer. Is it too hyped up? And are the books really that amazing? I say YES! And this is why.

Besides the fact that is has become a national phenomenon, the series I feel it has rekindled LOVE that couples have for one another, around the world. Whether it be how these ‘Twilight Moms’ (yes, I am proud to say I am one of them) dress, being more romantic and spontaneous, or just appreciating their spouse a little more, it has brought households together. Even young girls have their sites set on what true love really is and that maintaining your virtue till you get married is okay and even honored. Some mothers do not want their girls reading the series but having an 11 year old daughter of my own, I feel the books teach an amazing principle regarding pre-marital sex. And that waiting, can be the best and sweetest decision. For the young men, it teaches the same principle in that, respecting these precious young women that are of great worth is worth the wait. I feel that is what true love is all about; respect, honor and trust. If you can’t trust who you are with regarding your virtue, is it love or lust? I am one mother would wants my children to read the series.

That said, since my mother read the ‘Twilight’ series by Stephanie Meyer…her LOVE for my father has only increased. Especially with the past year they have had with my father’s heart attack and surgery…it has made them appreciate every day together even more.

I thought the idea of pictures in the cemetery was so very appropriate! LOVE you Mom and Dad.
