Today, I overslept. And I'm 6 minutes away from leaving the house for a day of bridesmaid-y activities- jewelry making, and bridal showers, and bachelorette parties (the last of which I've heard may include line dancing. Bring it on.). As I lay in bed this morning, snoozing my alarm, I was thinking about how today I would write about light and darkness, and why I love waking up after the sunrise so much these days. Instead, it turns out, I will write about love and marriage. As I writing a card to go with the gift I forgot to wrap until this morning, I realized that this would need to be my thoughtful moment for the day.
Hey you!
You're getting married. It's funny how when we were younger, the bigger deal seemed to be the event itself, and not everything that a wedding is a sign and symbol of. Now, I'm not only in awe of the fact that you're planning a party for 300 people, but also that you have made the choice to love this one man for the rest of your life. The party we'll throw a month from today is simply the sign of a decision you and Dan made months ago, and really, of a decision you'll make every day for the rest of your life. Keep up the good (and hard) work, and enjoy this day of laughter and anticipation. Love you.
