soon to be crowned

An excellent wife is the crown of her husband... (Proverbs 12:4)

Deep and heartfelt congratuations to my dearest and bestest friend, Aida Alam, who got engaged earlier this evening to Michael Gruden. The verse above was especially meaningful to them, as Michael had testified that he truly has found a wife of noble character. Here's a picture of the happy couple...

And of course, the gorgeous ring...

Uhhh... can I say BLING, BLING?!!!

And... Aida floating on cloud nine... =)


Boo,what an amazing journey the Lord has taken you through. And now, in His faithfulness, He has brought one of the greatest desires of your heart to fruition... in His perfect timing. What a wondrous and kind God we serve. Bill and I are so thankful that you and Michael were able to stop by and share this momentous event with us. It really meant a lot to be able to be a part of your magical little world tonight. =) And what a blessing to see you so happy. I love you, my dearest friend in the whole world and kindred spirit.
