Congratulations to the Royal Couple!


This morning I was waiting in the dentists office (No cavities Mom!) and saw on the news that Prince William had just been married. Maybe I am a romantic at heart, but I was so caught up in the news coverage of the royal wedding. It felt like the happily ever after you dream of as a little girl- average girl (aka-me) meets handsome prince. They ride in a carriage to the chapel. Wedding bells toll. Everyone cheers as they kiss on a balcony! Thousands and thousands crowd the streets to congratulate them. Of course there is the reality of paparazzi, the scrutiny of the public eye and countless of other things that I wouldn't call 'perks' of becoming royalty, but I wish the happy couple, and particularly Kate the very best, for I think she symbolizes in all of us the wishes of a young girls heart. I hope that in the future she can handle all of her publicity as gracefully as she already has.

There was all the talk of Kate's dress, but heavens, check out the ring! It's beautiful! 18 whopping Karats!
