People who fit together
5 October 2009
I always struggle when it comes to posting Monday blogs at my normal time. I’m not a particular fan of Mondays, especially when they follow what felt like a short weekend. We spent Saturday driving to, attending, and driving home from a family wedding. I assumed I would have some humorous anecdote or giant catastrophe to blog about today. I mean, what’s a wedding without one?
But the wedding appeared amazing and flawless. Not because of the decorations or the building, but because of the couple themselves. I’ve been hanging around Ben’s family for 12 years now, so I’ve watched his cousin, Jamie, grow up. When he introduced Heidi to us this summer at a family reunion, I think all of us were like, “Yeah. This is gonna work.” And watching two people get married who just plain “fit” with each other is always an amazing experience. I walk away from those weddings feeling fortunate to have been invited, to witness something as cool as a new life being created.
So while there was nothing funny or catastrophic (no alcohol, as you might guess), there was something better. It sounds sappy, like the basis of some awful love song, but I definitely felt like I was in the presence of true love, like I was watching God’s plan unfold before my eyes. Pretty cool, and definitely worthy of my Saturday.

I know I’m a lil biased, but thanks so much for sharing. I think the world of my brother and highly approve of his WIFE (sorry I’m so excited to get to use that word now!) But it’s so nice to hear other people say some of my thoughts….in words better than I can express, might I add! Lol! Thanks for sharing, your thoughts and your Saturday.
