The Beginning Of A New Life

When I was little and I dreamed about getting married I imagined dancing to "At The Beginning" by Donna Lewis with my new husband. The lyrics expressed my feelings about that happy day sometime in the future. The details of my future-happy-day changed quite often, but not more than the physical appearance of my "Prince Charming. He changed constantly between a blonde, blue-eyed, and daring man or a dark-haired, tall, and mysterious man, but the one thing that never changed was imagining I would find my best friend and starting our journey through life together. No matter what happened in our lives we would have each other and we would be happy because having each other is all that matters.


"We were strangers, starting out on a journey
Never dreaming, what we’d have to go through
Now here we are, I’m suddenly standing
At the beginning with you


No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected, what you did to my heart
When I lost hope, you were there to remind me
This is the start"

Well, guess what? Dreams do come true! I did find my best friend for forever and it just so happens that the first frog I kissed turned into my Prince Charming. It has been a long road with some up's and down's, but everything is working out and I am so excited for what our future holds for us.

 "And life is a road that I wanna keep going
Love is a river, I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road, now and forever, wonderful journey
I’ll be there when the world stops turning
I’ll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you"

Randy and I will probably pick a different song for our first couple's dance, and I am realizing a lot of my choices have changed over time, but what matters is that we are getting married. The little details of the wedding don't matter, but the covenants we make in the House of the Lord with each other and our Heavenly Father. We will be sealed for time and all eternity and we can go through life knowing that no matter what "life" throws at us we will always have each other.

"We were strangers on a crazy adventure
Never dreaming, how our dreams would come true
Now here we stand, unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you."
(At The Beginning by Donna Lewis & Richard Max)

Oh and by the way, Randy definetly fits into the dark-haired, tall, and mysterious Prince Charming catagory and I got a bonus, a sense of humor! We are always laughing and joking with each other. I am so lucky!
