Once Upon A Time
We were two starry eyed dreamers, my sister and I. We would lie awake in our bed dreaming up our prince charmings, the way we would say "Yes, I'll marry you,", and imagining our wedding dresses.
We let the sappy love songs carry us away as we longed for the day we would be in our future husband's arms. And then we waited for our happily ever afters to begin.
My sister has longed to be a bride since she was two years old. She has prepared and trained to be a keeper of the home, to cherish and support her husband, and train her children in the way they should go. She waited and waited for her beloved but he did not come when we dreamed he would.
My sister watched as I walked down the aisle. She watched as I held my firstborn son and then my second son. She longed, and waited for her prince, but he did not come. My incredible dreamer sister then surrendered her story to God, who picked up His pen. And when she let go of the chapters in her heart, he re-wrote better then we dreamed.





Thanks for making me cry Meg! I love you dearly! I am missing you so much and loved the fact that we were able to share all of our dreams together! I love you and cant wait to be able to share more of our dreams together!
ReplyDeleteI love my sister too. You reminded me that while each person has their own life story there is a greater power, an author who lays out the path.
