Clare

I feel great today.
Yesterday I worked on a wedding - a real celebration of 2 peoples love for each other.
I was Clare for a whole day and night. Not a mother or a wife.
It was hard in the morning to leave my secure world and hand over the control especially as my hubbie was in bed with a migraine and one of my children showed me a new bizarre rash just as I was driving them to be looked after by a friend. ( there is no school on a Wednesday in France )
The wedding was a couple who live in England who had fallen in love with this area and everyone they met here. They had a vision of their wedding here and made it happen.
I was very honoured to work with such a professional team and even more honoured to be able to call them my friends.
In the evening all us workers were invited to the party which was great fun and we danced til the wee hours in the morning to a fantastic, very funny group called Les Frère André http://www.info-groupe.com/lesfreresandre/
Its taught me that I can do things on my own and my children and husband can too and it has just energised me. It has reminded me to remember my own needs too, guilt free.

C'est génial ! Merci de ce partage Clare... je ne savais pas que tu y étais retourné le soir !!! Super, quel courage !
En tout cas c'est un beau cadeau cette prise de conscience que tu as eu... je t'embrasse fort et je suis vraiment ravie de ta présence ce jour là.
