And you are calling me because? - Heart check.

So we have moved past this Bridal Shower scheduling thing to only have more complications. It seems to be a story in my life with this wedding planning. It's beginning to take the joy out of it for me. Anyway, I had changed my bridesmaid dresses once the girls started to get measured - not because I'm picky but because they jacked up the price of them at the bridal shop and I didn't want my girls to have to pay that much.

Here is what we have:


Anyway, the shop called me yesterday to tell me what girls still needed to pay them. They aren't exactly the nicest dress stop to work with so that wasn't helpful! I don't understand why when they have the girls names and numbers that it's my job to call and remind them. Better yet, why are you calling me just to tell me what girls haven't? Is this normal?

While I was beginning to get perturbed I thought "In what ways am I being like Christ in this situation?". Chewing them out, talking badly about them etc. was not going to change that they had called me, and if I did that - I wouldn't be showing them Christ's love. I had to give my heart a big check. And while I'm aware that this post may have been my chance to vent and may even give you a bad picture of the situation I felt that it was necessary for you to see what had happened on this journey to end at this conclusion.

Thanks for reading! More to come :)
