The wedding is becoming more and more real. Not only am I getting my wedding dress fitted today, but my mom told me to bring my chequebook down so I can pay for a few things. Fairy tale and reality, all at once!

The timing is good for these appointments as now I get to spend a little time with my mum on Mother’s Day. Unfortunately, she works most of the afternoon on Sunday, so it won’t be much time. Better some time than none, especially in such an important year when she has done so much for me. (not that she doesn’t do anything when I am not getting married, but she’s done most of the work on this wedding – that qualifies as a special year!)
