A couple of weeks ago my oldest child Heather asked me to come with her as she was fitted for her wedding dress. I brought my camera, I hope she didn’t mind too much. I’m not sure the shop owner was too happy with me. But hey, I want to remember what I can remember, and I may not be privy to every detail of Heather’s wedding planning. But I was there for this part. And I want to remember.
The dress shop
The cute little shop Heather ordered her dress from is in downtown St. Petersburg.
Will it fit?
Happy Face
Heather’s face in this picture reminds me of when she was a little girl. She looks excited to be finally trying on her wedding dress. I can only imagine the thoughts running through her mind. Isn’t this what every little girl dreams of? I’m happy for her.
It needs some adjustments, but overall she’s looking lovely – as she would regardless of the dress.
I can’t believe she’s 27 already, and that next month I’ll watch proudly as she takes another step into womanhood. Being a wife is one of the most difficult, challenging, but supremely rewarding roles a woman can fill. My prayers and hopes go with her!
Heather, Mackenzie and Liam - three of my five lovely children
