At Amaya's camp two weeks ago there was a pony wedding. The kids nominated two horses from the stable to get married and the week's free time was devoted to wedding preparations. The parents were invited to come in for the wedding. Amaya was one of the "mothers of the bride" and all of the other ponies were in the wedding party. It was amazing, There were banners and flowers, noisemakers and edible (for ponies) confetti. Every detail was covered right down to the wedding cake. The best man and maid of honor spoke of the bride and groom. Both have known both ponies for years and everyone toasted them with ginger ale. A good time was had by all. It was a timely reminder that we can make any day into a celebration, even if we don't have a wedding going on. In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives it's easy to say we're too busy to celebrate the small stuff. But then we never make time to celebrate anything. Let's all try to learn from our kids and inject a little more fun into our daily lives.
