My dad wrote this in his newsletter this morning. It was so incredibly sweet I decided to post it here so I will remember. :)
Dear Friends & Family,
We would like to announce that Mr. Sonny Sweatt has obtained favor from the Lord by finding himself an excellent woman to wed--our daughter, Elizabeth! Sonny faithfully served our family, church, and Loving Decisions (Ai no Kesshin) for almost 3 years. We were very pleased to hear of their engagement last Monday night on a tiny island in a small lake in Mississippi complete with candle light and fireworks (upon Elizabeth's acceptance of Sonny's proposal!) They hope to be wed by the end of the year. Sonny is teaching English about 1 hour from us and Elizabeth will move back to Japan this June.
