The Waiting Game

Layal

Isn't she beautiful? This is hubby's oldest niece, Layal, Lulu is her nickname. Well, my LuLu just had her engagement, and I missed it. UGH. Lulu is a rare woman, who is beautiful, warm, kind, and would do anything for you. All you need to do is ask. The boys and I call her chauffer, since she spends her summers driving us around Lebanon when we are there without hubby. I love her so much, and feel as if she's my sister. We have shared a lot over the last 16 years, and I am both happy and sad. Happy that she is growing up and getting ready to let her heart soar. But sad because she is getting ready to leave the nest. Things will change once she is married and begins the next journey of her life. It is bittersweet.

So for you my Arabian Beauty. I wish you joy, love and happiness. You deserve it!

A breath of fresh air.

The sharing of hearts,
