The other shower will be tomorrow. My dearest friend from my
last job will be celebrating the fall wedding of her son. I’ve heard tales of
his antics for many a year. His parents could not be more proud of this young
man, for inside his frame is still his mom’s little boy. It will be a wonderful
way to begin this second countdown.
So lots of love is in the air. There is the adoration that
two young couples promise to maintain. They both are starting their marriages
with the love of their families and friends. Each couple has a strong family
foundation that will help root their marriages to withstand all that the future
brings. Many people will demonstrate just a portion of the goodwill being sent
their way.
I can see myself continuing to need the love of the people
at these showers. My friend from work was a personal confidante who helped
encourage, motivate, and support me. I’ll still need that support with the
strong faith that special friendships bring. My husband’s brothers will be
needed to help face all that the future will try to throw my Bob’s way. I’m
confident that they will both be at his sides as calendar pages are turned.
Throughout this weekend, I’ll be celebrating more than the
love of these two young star-crossed lovers. A blanket of serenity gently
surrounded me as I crossed my own threshold later in the afternoon. I love my husband so much. It feels
right to just sit here and spend a less than thrill-seeking Saturday night.
It’s comforting to just be home together. I find that I am trying to memorize
our time together. It feels good to continue to feel that serenity as he holds
me on the couch and we quietly laugh as we enjoy a quiet evening. Wow! Life is
good!
God Uses Our Love to Prove that Life is Good
A quiet evening is
treasured in our home.
