This is a photo of the ceremony at my daughter's wedding. It was held under this beautiful tent and just beyond is the Atlantic Ocean. Unfortunately, the day was so bright we could not get a good shot. I inked and painted the butterfly, added the hearts ala my friend Catz, and inked and stickled the letters. There is significance to the butterfly explained on the card hidden behind the photo. I kept a journal for my daughter to chronicle the events from her engagement to her wedding day. I filled two journal books and presented them to her with a Swarvoski crystal starfish on the eve of her marriage. In the journal, I had written that her grandmother, my mom, who had passed away a few years earlier, would be with her on her wedding day. The two adored each other. My mother loved butterflies and so imagine my joy when my daughter came running up to me after her photos on the beach with tears in her eyes. "Mom", she said, "Grandma is here, Two butterflies just landed on me. One flew away but the other stayed by me the whole time!" Here in the Northeast, it is rare to find monarch butterflies on the beach! This page is dedicated to the memory of my mom. TFL!
