Chasing Heaven

Wedding Day

Today was the day I was finally becoming Mrs. Laurent Nicolas Bourgeois. I was so excited but nervous at the same time for some reason I stay inside my head thinking of things that are not even an issue. I sat thinking about how much my life has changed since meeting Laurent. I was happy truly happy. Never had I thought in a million years did I think that I would meet Prince Charming or become the mother of his children. I looked outside at the beach watching the waves crash against the shore. The sun was shining brightly as if it was smiling down at us.
"You ready girl?" Raquel said looking over at me.
"Yeah." I smiled "are you?"
Tears formed in her eyes as she began to speak. " Heaven you are the bestest friend I could have ever asked for I'm glad God put you in my life. I'm glad to call you sister."
I hugged her with all I could muster up tears welling up in my eyes too.
"Look at us D'Angelo is going to kill us for messing up this make up.
We both laughed. People were starting file into their seats. I can't believe this is happening.  You are so beautiful by Ray Charles began to play

Raquel and I walked down the isle to our waiting grooms. Laurent was beautiful his skin glowing in the sunlight. My heart skipped a beat as I got closer. Raquel and I held hand as we walked down the aisle. Laurent and I had prepared our own wows.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today in holy matrimony. The brides and the grooms have prepared their own vows."
Heaven's Vows
Laurent you have lifted me from a place of sadness to happiness. You are my rock of jibraltor. My strength. You are my Sun and Moon. My knight in backwards pants. You are my everything and from now until forever I will spend my life loving and nurturing you in sickness and in health as long as air flow through my lungs and beyond. I love you."

Laurent Vows
Heaven when I first saw you I knew you were going for be the one I love forever. You non only beautiful on the outside but on inside too. You are the ying to my yang the Bonnie to my Clyde the beating to my heart. I promise that as long as I live I will keep that beautiful smile on you face I will cherish you always. You are my light in dark and I love you bebe until a day past forever.

After Raquel and Larry recited their vows the reverand continued on with the ceremony. There wasn't a dry eye in the church. At the point when he said you may now kiss the bride. I kissed Laurent for what seemed like an eternity. It's funny the way things worked if my life hadn't dealt me the cards it did I would have never met Lau all the sadness was worth it in the end. I guess sometimes you just got to be patient and wait for the blessings in life and he is definitely a blessing. So here's to the good life.
The end or just the beginning....
