summer wedding

I have mentioned that my younger sister is getting married this summer? In just four weeks. Four very short weeks!

So, while we should have been doing many other things yesterday, we practiced decorating cupcakes for the bridal shower. I have to say, Phoebe did a much better job on her leaves than I did on the flowers. Maybe we’ll switch jobs for the real thing.

We are so very excited for my sister. She has waited a long time to find Mr. Right. One thing that I have very much admired and appreciated is that during her time of singleness she didn’t focus on getting married. She used her time as a single woman for God’s glory and was able to do many things, such as spontaneous mission trips after Hurricane Katrina, that someone who is married and has children would find much harder to do. She has been a great example to my children of living a godly single life and being content – even when you desire something else.

And so, we have a summer wedding. 

Thanks for sharing with your friends!
