Number 19: A standout Wedding Song

The wedding dance.

I have been listening to Baaba Maal with Mumford and Sons this morning.

The song "There will be Time", performed live in South Africa, has lyrics that make me catch my breath, and this is the song Kim and Barry choose for their wedding dance.

I love everything about their choice of song it so reflects their happiness and love.

Number 19: 

A Standout Wedding Song

In the cold light, I live to love and adore you
It's all that I am, it's all that I have
In the cold light I live, I only live for you
It's all that I am, it's all that I have
There is a time, a time to love
A time to sing, a time to shine
A time to leave, a time to stay
There is a time, a time to cry
A time to love, a time to live
There is a time, a time to sing
A time to love

Three weeks ago we quietly basked in our son's wedding day. The build-up, the preparation, Barry getting dressed among the companionship of his bestmen, the subtle beauty of the Magaliesberg, a restful chapel, a quite beautiful bride - we have a daughter-in-law!, a beaming Barry, an unusual venue decorated with care and detail, these two people surrounded by a roomful of family and friends who value them...

Venue at Black Horse Brewery

Mother and Father of the Groom, a rare and quite wonderful moment in our lives.

A happy FotG and MotG

The mantle of mother lifts from my shoulders as I acknowledge the adult Barry has become and the husband he will be.
