Jenna is “love” crazy. She loves everything about people being in love and her favorite part of a movie is when the boy and girl finally fall in love or even kiss. Yes, I know she is only seven. But her intentions are innocent—she wants to see a happy couple. When Jenna was two, and on a major princess kick, she decided she was going to marry Prince Charming. This went on for a long time. (She has since moved on to Justin Bieber and has even “married” him—his picture at least.)
Right around this time I remember riding in the car with my very precocious little Jenna and she was once again talking about marrying Prince Charming. And that’s when it hit me. She should marry Prince Charming--HER Prince Charming. A prince who will love her unconditionally with all his heart, even during her worst moments. A prince who will treat her like a princess even when she is acting like a princess. A prince that will support and encourage her, laugh with her, grow with her, respect her, pick her up when she falls, and praise her when she succeeds. A prince, who above all else, devotes his life to making her happy.
Eighteen years ago, while on family vacation as a teenager, I met my Prince. And ten years ago today, after dating through high school and college, I married my Prince. He may be more the Shrek or Beast type prince, but he is MY prince and I love him more every day!
John…You are a wonderful man, father and husband. I thank God every day for bringing you into my life. I have enjoyed every minute we have shared and look forward to the making more wonderful memories in the future. Thank you for devoting your life to making me happy! I love you with all my heart and soul—Happy 10th Anniversary!!!
Jenna and Mary Ava…One day you will find your prince. And when that day comes, many years for now, I only hope you will be as happy as your daddy makes me!
