Until about 3 years ago, I honestly had given up on my fairy tale. I was a single mom for 6 years. Yep. Just me and Scarlett until God made me meet my amazing husband at church. He was the sound and lighting director in a production that I was the assistant director for. I had no intention of getting married or even, at that time, dating a man. They were trouble. Then I met him and against my better judgement, fell in love. At a late night practice, from the stage with all looking (including my friend Malia) he proposed to me...and to Scarlett. After he asked me the question which was undoubtedly affirmed, he asked he if he could be her daddy and gave her a ring too. So last night, as I sat there watching Ariel and Eric do double axles and then fly into each other's arms, I smiled thinking about my Prince Charming sitting at home feeding, playing with, changing and cuddling with Bubba. It hasn't been perfect, but it has been a wonderful life. Just like the Shulamite and her Beloved in the Song of Songs, my fairy tale came true and has gotten better and better everyday.
