A Beautiful Wedding

 We had the great blessing of being invited to a wedding this weekend for a family we have known since before we were married. Our whole family has not been to a wedding in several years, and this one was especially beautiful. We had such a wonderful time celebrating with them. The mass and reception were more sparsely spaced to follow covid restrictions, and only the immediate family/wedding party went without masks except during some of the dancing, so it was well orchestrated!

The little girls had a chance to dance with the sweet bride.

It was so precious...this little one belonging to some friends was really sleepy but wanted to dance. Mariana offered to dance with her and won her over completely. When she was done dancing, she insisted Mariana hold her and wouldn't let anyone else take her, even her own momma. They had to bribe her with chocolate covered strawberries so they could head home. So sweet. It reminded me of a time when something similar happened to me at a wedding reception, and that sweet girl who clung to me is now in college! (am I that old?!) Mariana certainly has a way with little people. :)
