Day 2

The meaning behind your blog name.

Happily Ever After means so many meanings once I sit here and really think about it. Basically,it means I am living my own fairy tale! I have found my Prince Charming,I have great friends and family and I am happy when I look in the mirror.It took me 30 years to get here.
It means that daily I stand in awe at how abundantly God has answered my prayers. Many years ago I lived a lie and I was stuck in a miserable marriage. Things were so depressing for so long that I had become convinced they'd never get better.I made some huge choices and changes and prayed once again that I was doing the right thing,even if it meant hurting someone else. The transformation took a year. By the time I had finally broken down and allowed myself to unravel,I realized I just didn't know how...? That,was rock bottom.
I lost friends,I gained toxic friends and spent a lot of time getting to know myself. It's a blurry memory of dating,Myspace and living life with no obligations.This went on for about a year..until I met Vern. If you know me or read my blog you know all the good parts in between then and now. As new happy memories were made,the bad ones disappeared. I cannot define Happily Ever After...but I know what it feels like. It's a pinch on the butt from Vern 99% of the time when he passes by me ..and I still giggle. It's knowing that your two heads are better than one and focused on the same goals. It's making a special dinner and watching him go for seconds.That's my fairy tale...that's my Happily Ever After :)
