The other day a friend and I were talking about a recent end to a dating relationship. After ruffling my feathers by calling question to her excessive feminine qualities, we settled on common ground. My dear friend just couldn't handle dating a Princess.
To his credit, they did seem to have different priorities; her's being a little shallow, non-edifying, an ounce demanding, everything handed to her on a silver platter, extra irritable.... back to the point.
The next morning while getting ready the whole topic of 'princesshood' came fluttering back. Being an earned and self-proclaimed Princess, the idea of the title presenting any complication once baffled me, however through my years I have counseled several similar individuals as my dear ex-relationship friend. Some people really just can't handle the title- much less the accompanied duties.
As I was humorously reviewing this (over-dramatic-intended to make you shake your head... I'll admit it!) principle, my eyes slowly wandered upon my full length mirror to my reflection. With a straightener in one hand, and Aquafina bottle in the other, at 6:30AM my attire spoke to all the curious non-exposed Princess folks. So my advice to Anti-Princess-Guy was...... "Don't date a girl who wears cute black and white polka-dotted underwear with a bow, matching t-shirt, and sparkly heals while getting ready in the morning, vaccuming, cooking, cleaning, gardening (just kidding) and really anything else." I think he's really heeded my advice.
A 'smattering' of life happenings from a wife, mother, daughter, friend who chooses not to take it ALL too seriously. So, let's hold on tight and enjoy the ups and downs....

I'm falling in love.....
I have to admit, every day I fall more in love.....
I melt at the sight of a beautiful sunset.... though have learned I can't stomach it upside down in the back of a truck!
The contagious excitement of longer days, deeper sunshine and gloriously sweet breezes lengthen the understanding of my soul and Savior.
I am seduced by the color green... the signature of life... the amazing wonder of a new beginning.
Running underneath the shadows of budding trees promise security and whisper secrets of my future.
The simplicity of being outside only to feel the wind wrap its arms around every inch of my body awakens my heart.
I love falling in love with life....... It draws me closer to the senses of every moment , deeper to the loved ones I'm lured to and saturated with, and places an urgent rush/exciting anxiety to be more in love with my Father who created the very essence of love.
Oh, I love falling more in love. After all, isn't life all about love?
