Fast Forward
Remember VHS tapes? When you wanted to jump ahead in a movie you actually had to watch the part you were trying to skip...just in fast forward. I tried so hard for the last week of my life to NOT be in fast forward. Several times I found myself stopping, pressing pause, and trying to soak it all in. Enjoying the sights, sounds, smells, and faces of the people I love.
My sweet hubby (I love saying that) and I sat at our reception dinner and looked at the room full of people and were overcome. We wanted to jump up and see what everyone needed...more food, drinks...but our sweet friend told us...you are the reason they are here. Sit down and enjoy yourselves...be the bride and the groom. Finally after all the running around we stopped. We were so thankful that the people that mean the most to us, came to celebrate...well...US.
I found myself trying to thank those who did things for us, traveled a long distance, or just said something nice to us...and thank you isn't enough. I can promise, though, that we won't forget that moment.
Today all is well with the world. And I AM a married lady.
