Marriage joins not just April & Eric together as a new family but joins their existing families together as well. Their families have helped shape and support both April and Eric throughout their lives and are an important part of their lives today and their new married life. So, without further ado...here are the extended families who will now be one through April and Eric.
| | | I have been very blessed to have Alex and Mary Lou Padilla as my parents. They have always supported me, let me explore different interests, and humored my idiosyncrasies. From my father I have received my humor, my interest in science, knowledge of business and understanding of Jazz. From my mother I have received my love (bordering on obsession) with books, appreciation of art, joy of education and understanding of politics. Whenever I've needed them they have always been there, no questions. And though I kid them that their lives only really began once I was born, in truth it is my life that would have never been the same without them as my parents. I greatly appreciate that they have fully adopted April and Allison into their lives and into our family, and they love them just as much (if not more) as they love me. My desire is to be as good a husband to April as my dad has been to my mom, and be as good as parents as both of them have been for me. Love you both infinity. |
