Because a girl named Alex has asked me to share more about my courtship that is what I am doing! We choose to court not date. A wonderful poste to read on this is done by Brittnee. If you are the one who wants to court and you parents are not on the same page as you I recommend a book called So Much More. Written by Anna Sofia Botkin and Elizabeth Botkin. These girls are sisters and wrote this book together at a very young age! There is a chapter called Fathers, Daughters, and Suitors. Where it explains about courtship and tells how to get your parents on the same page if they have different views.

When Nathan told me he was interested in me my first response was why are you telling me this, my father is the one you need to talk to. Others have shared an interest in me, but when I told them to talk to dad they never did. It weeded out all who I would not have liked any way. I am so happy he did have the courage to talk to dad! Having my parents know what’s going on, and directing what is going on helps so much. I don't know how people who date do it! I would much rather have my parents and his with us every time we do something.
I don't really know what to say on the topic other than without my mother and father I would be lost. I am so happy they want to help me find my future spouse. That they have only my best interest in mind, and that they will help me make very important choices. My father is my protector and provider until the day I marry, which is why he needs to know my heart, and my thoughts on things such as courting.
For right now Nathan and I are just getting to know each other and our families better. Some people would say that I am picky about who I want to marry but in truth I want to pick a Pearson I can be happy with. Who I will be able and want to submit to. So my guidelines for a future spouse are much higher than the normal. For example I would never want to marry someone who said dancing was not honoring to Christ. Though it is something small it is important, how I could submit to a man I do not agree 100% with.

Needless to say, DD is starting to see a "better" way to appoach many areas of her life "looking through" the lens of the Bible. God's ways are always best. They are not always "popular" but ALWAYS the best.
Have a blessed day in The Lord and keep sharing!
