Thank you one and all for your responses. I'm just going to continue to pray about this and hope she comes around at some point. Don't know if it helps or not, but she has some co-workers that are members of the church, one of them being the person that gave me my first copy of the Book of Mormon several years ago. They have sent messages of support to me through her, so i know they have been talking about it. I made a few attempts to talk to her about it, but get shot down rather quickly.

I might be expecting too much. My daughter who is 17 and not attending with me either, was uneasy at first, but she was open enough to sit down and have a talk with me. Once i explained some things about how the church works, she was very understanding about it. She thought the missionaries were going to be at the house every other day, lol. We had a nice talk and she said she completely supports my decision, even though she does not want to join. I completely understand and respect her decision. She talks to the missionaries when they are at the house and has even joined me at some social functions and had fun meeting new people. I think that at some point we are going to have to talk about these things, I guess that I will have to wait until she is ready.
