Happy Father's Day

Happy Fathers Day! The day after our wedding we celebrate the men and dad's in our lives. Although our grandfather's were not physically with us yesterday, they were definitely there in our wedding.
I had long dreaded yesterday not because I didnt want to get married but because the thought of not having my grandpa walk me down the aisle was too painful to think of. I must admit I shed plenty of tears before the ceremony but my family was full of special surprises. My grandmother presented me with one of my grandfather's medallions and I was able to wear it in side of my dress right next to my heart. And of course Richard, sent me a beautiful bracelet that had my grandfather's name on it and I was able to wear it during the ceremony. I was definitely overwhelmed with emotion but totally at peace with his presence. He was truly there celebrating in this wonderful blessing. So today I honor my husband and all the wonderful men in my life; thank you for simply being you!
