One of my favorite books is Captivating {Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman’s Soul} by, John & Stasi Eldredge; a book about discovering who you are, as a woman. A woman who at her core was made for romance, made to play an irreplaceable role in a shared adventure, and who really does possess a beauty all her own to unveil.
Every little girl I can think of, including myself, since she is old enough to dream, has dreamed of being a beautiful princess. Proud and pretty. Graceful with authority. Every little girl I can think of, including, of course, my own. I wrote a song for her about just that, earlier this year.
Shortly after moving to this little town outside Austin, I discovered a unique piece of architecture on some property off a curvy country road. Amidst old barns and brick homes, there stood a castle, complete with winged gargoyles and nitched balconies. I’d always say to myself, “I could see my princess, Angel in front of that castle.” Well, this week, I finally did.
For all 12 photos taken (by my husband), of Angel & Braylon at the castle & in a nearby corn field (& one of Angel getting eaten alive by bugs on a hay barrel) click here & smile.
