all is well...

I had the most horrible restless sleep last night.

I have been a mess the whole last week.:o)

I woke up this morning wondering what was going to happen and if I was going to make it though.

(ever happen to anyone else?)

While I was laying in bed, it was still dark outside, I had this memory flood back into my mind:

It was the night before my wedding.

I had just returned from the errand of picking up my wedding dress from the dry cleaners...only to find that my dress had been ruined.

 

I had made the pattern, designed, and sewn the dress completely by myself.

I was devastated.

(These are my Grandparents.
As I type this they are on a LDS Church Mission in New Zealand.  

They are incredible people.)

After I had returned from the dry cleaners, I was sitting on the piano bench at my Aunt's house crying to myself.  
(I was a mess then too :o))
Wondering how everything was going to work out and how I was going to make it through.

My wedding was hours away and I had no dress.

My Grandpa walked over to me, gave me a kiss on my forehead, and walked away without saying a word.

I felt from him that all was well...and that everything would be OK.

I will never forget it.

I am so grateful I was reminded of this story on this morning.

Everything will be OK and that this too shall pass...I just know it will.

Thanks Grandpa for helping me remember.

this is my favorite shirt right now...

 i found it at Target!

it's there now and i thought everyone should know :o)

i love how the ruffles go all the way around the neck and you can see them when worn with a cardigan.

i also like to wear it tucked in with a little jacket.

they also have it in black and yellow.

you might just need one.
