A Special Morning

Many mornings,

I am up at 4:00 a.m.

I think it's an inherited

internal clock from

generations past.

However,

I had good reason today.

Of course,

I was excited about the

Royal Wedding.

A girl is never too old

to believe in fairy tales

and happy endings, is she?

Even if she's kind of old,

unmarried and not dating,

right?

Right?

Anyway,

here are my two cents on the whole shebang.

I LOVED it!

I thought the Queen looked

wonderful in yellow.

I honestly just think she is the cutest thing.

I loved, loved, loved

Pippa's dress.

Simply stunning elegance!

Of course,

Princes William and Harry

were dashing as always.

And Kate.

Beautiful, stunning,

elegant Kate.

Perfection in her veil,

tierra and dress.



By all appearances,

it seemed that everything

was smooth sailing.

I'm happy for the bride and groom.

My favorite moment of the entire morning?

Waking my daughter at 5:04 a.m.,

just in time to see the ceremony.

She dashed for her camera

and took many, many pictures

of the couple on the T.V.

Bless her heart.

Her pictures will mean more

to her than any done by

the magazines and newspapers.

I felt so proud and blessed

watching her in her excitement.

After hearing her say for at least the 20th time

" I want her dress!"

I was secretly saying,

THANK YOU, Kate and William

for having your wedding

AFTER the Prom!

P.S.  I've taped the two kisses for her so she can
see it after school.  I'm sure
this picture won't be enough for her!
