Okay, I embarassing admit that this Royal Wedding has me excited. Why? I'm not really sure. All I can think of is I remember being in 7th grade and watching Princess Di's wedding. Being mesmerized by it all. Wanting to be that princess and have that happily ever after, some day.
I didn't know just how much that wedding affected me until I was planning my own wedding. I remember looking at the dresses and recalling that wedding. So, I got the big dress, with the looong train, with the crystal headpiece and even the pearl drop earrings. And as I walked down the looong aisle, to meet MY prince Charming, I felt it...I felt like a princess.
So, maybe that is why I am all wrapped up in seeing her son getting married. After all, his bride has no royalty in her bloodline, and she is just a commoner who is literally going to become a princess right in front of us.
It's the stuff that fairytales are made of, and in today's world with terrorists, the economy, and schools closing out of blue - I want to feel the way I did when I was 12 years old watching Diana marry Charles. I want to forget about everything for a few hours and be mesmerized by the whole idea of it, and remember that dreams still do come true.
Cheerio!
