In a matter of 16 days

In 16 short days, I will be Mrs.Stanley! This fact is still hard for me to wrap my mind around! Two short years ago my entire world crumbled. I lost the woman who had been my rock my whole life. In that time I honestly believed that I would never be happy again. And to be honest, sometimes I still struggle with the fact that this tragedy has changed who I used to be. For the longest time, I felt guilty for smiling. To me, because my mom was gone and couldn't be here to see my little sister grow, or be at my little brothers graduation, that I didn't have the right to be happy.. To smile. Then I fell for this guy... I tried not to, the timing just wasn't right, and I was still hurting so bad. But he listened.. He listened to me cry.. And then apologize for crying, and even put up with my crazy mood swings from minute to minute. I began to let down my walls and show him a glimpse of who I was. To my surprise he didn't run away!! Actually he didn't even walk away, but he stood by my side and encouraged me when I needed it most. I'm so proud to say that that guy is Morgan Stanley!!! And that in a matter of 16 days he will make me his bride. God knew what he was doing when he made our paths cross, and for that I couldn't be any more grateful. I can not wait to marry my best friend and to start my life with this amazing man!! I love you Morgan Stanley!! More than you will ever know!
