Dreams Do Come True
Video of Michael and me. The song “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran is the first we danced to when were reunited after 25 years apart.
Michael,
my kind, strong, compassionate husband, you are proof of dreams coming true. I admire and respect you for your great noble character, morals, values, work ethics, and faith in God. You are consistent in character, and that is so important these days. It means I can count on your word and so do others, they know they can trust you and that you are reliable.
I will never have to endure that walking on eggshells feeling I have felt in the past with other relationships-I can't believe I thought that was normal. It took conditioning from you over time with your precious love and patience to show me real "love." I have learned that love can heal a multitude of things. Emotional well-being is integral to healing. I feel safe every day with you! The only tears you bring to my eyes are of love and happiness. You are peaceful and grounded.
You enhance everything in my life; my work, being a mother, a grandmother and I love how you care for your family, which is now our family. I have never seen a better son or brother. Your family is blessed! You love our Lord; you pray with me and over me each morning before leaving for work. If I have a struggle, you remind me that God will get me through it. Together we are stronger.
A Secret Prayer Before We Go to St. Francis of Assisi Chapel to Get Married
I thank God for all the might-have-been relationships that didn't work out for me. Isn't God amazing! He answered my prayers and gave me even more than I ever dared to ask for, but Our Lord hears unspoken prayers we have deep in our heart, doesn't He? I discovered it when he brought me you, and I discover it more and more every day.
Each day of my life was a piece of my dream coming true; the good, the bad, all of it. If either of us had settled, God would never have been able to reunite us after 25 years! Jesus really is the best gift-giver if we trust, surrender, and wait for His perfect timing. I love you so much! You are proof that if we pray and are patient, God can bless us with more than we ever dreamed.
~Yours, Belle
What a Beautiful, Precious Wedding with some of the most special people in our lives at our wedding. There is an extraordinary surprise in the second half of this video. It is the most valuable gift I have ever received from my husband (Michael prepared a wedding toast from my dad. They recorded it before he stepped into heaven) Wait for it; it is the first time my daughter son and I had tears in our eyes at the same time. (That I know of)
