For Tomorrow: December 17th, 2005

I am writing this post today because, tomorrow, I am sure my heart will be too fluttery and I will be too distracted with romance of all sorts to blog about it (I am a lucky girl).

:

Tomorrow, we celebrate each other, certain covenants, and the day we became Mr. and Mrs. Keller.

:

The morning of our wedding day, I sat on my parents' bed while my mom clasped a white swarovski crystal bracelet on my right wrist and my dad buckled my dress shoes. They asked if I was nervous.

:

I was full of peace.

Bliss. Joy.

Four years later, my feelings are changed. They are more so, and much deeper.

-

They are real. All things stripped, there is tenderness and trust and love. As simplistic and as patterned as our lives may be, there is holiness in it. We find it in family, in parenthood.

-

We find it in the thing which brought us to where we are now - marriage.

-

And how we've learned and grown and been blessed beyond measure or compare.

-

Last week, I sat on the floor with Megan and told her how I believe with a full heart, that for me, when I put my entire self into the hands of Heavenly Father, I found myself exactly where I needed to be. And in the simplicity of doing so, I felt whole and pure. All else fell into place.

-

All else was orchestrated. And continues to be.

-

I'm so thankful for that.

-

To my darling JLK: I love you. Happy day to us on the morrow! I am the luckiest girl and you are the best for me! I'm so glad we have forever and ever together.
