Growing Patience

I find it hard to sit and wait when there is so much to be done. The mother of the bride is supposed to be the one planning, running, organizing, and delegating. I am not good at those things. More often than not folks have looked at me like, "You've got to be kidding me..." and so I never learned this valuable life skill.

No matter how badly organized we are (or aren't), the wedding will go forth. We will gather at the park with or without perfect decorations. There will be family, friends, food, and fun. We will love and laugh and our family will grow. It's going to be a good day.
