Ammon, the Arm Slayer

This is Ammon.
Kathryn's fiance.
Yup, you read that right.
Ammon Malone.
I've never met him - neither has Del, but we both said 'yes'.
So, to explain the details.
A month ago, Kathryn decides to tell us she has been dating a guy for a few days and he's getting serious.  She is hesitant, but really likes him.  Things progress and with in 2 weeks, they are talking marriage.  The next week, he calls Del and asks if he can marry Kathryn and Del says yes. Now, we are a planning a wedding for Sept. 15th in Utah.
Yes, he's handsome, talented, hard worker, good personality and sense of humor, and a HUGE BYU fan.  He's also the father of 4 children and has been divorced twice.  Certainly red flags when we first heard, but then the details were shared - first wife was an arranged marriage shortly after he got home off his mission and his father died.  They had 2 children, and then decided they should have remained friends and not gotten married.  They have Rykert and Lilly.  Rykert has cystic fibrosis.
Then a few years later, he married again, had two sons, and that wife had about 6 affairs on him and was mentally not well, so ended up in a rehab place.  Ammon had the two younger boys until she got out and then came and took them.  She won't let Ammon see the boys now.  He's taking her to court for joint custody.
And Kathryn has found herself smack in the middle of all of this instant motherhood stuff and very much in love with Ammon.  Del and I are actually impressed with Ammon and feel that he and Kathryn are a perfect match.  He has drifted away from the church after his father died and both divorces and so needless to say, there will not be a temple wedding.
But we are pleased with Kathryn's choice.  We have had several opportunities to talk and visit with Ammon both on the phone and skyping - he's sharp - a singer too.  He treats Kathryn beautifully and kindly.  And she is very lucky and blessed to have found such a great guy.
Of course, Kathryn does have some anxiety - this instant motherhood thing has her slightly thrown out of her comfort zone.  I think she'll handle it a lot better than she thinks she will.  The Lord is very mindful of Kathryn and her abilities.  I think He will sustain her in her desires to be a good wife and step mom to these kids.  And we will support her in this new life she will have.
Kathryn seems genuinely happy - calm and content when with him.  Less drama - less sick - more stable.  She just seems ready.  I'm happy for her and know that if she will trust in herself, in Ammon and in the Lord, this will actually work and make her very happy.
