Two years ago this day just so happened to land on a saturday night. It was a cool night. A light April shower. And the night before I was shipped off to Mt. View hospital for the next few days to start the process that I had been dreading for so long. I called this guy I'd been texting for about a month now. Even though I had known him in person for about three years prior to this I still was all caught up with the butterflies accompanying my baby in my belly. I had reason to be nervous! We met at the Santaquin Park. He looked me up and down, noticing the basketball belly covered by my not-so-maternity shirt, half covered by my sweater. I looked him up and down as well. He hasn't changed much. I remembered this guy as a walking, talking, lolli-pop! His head was so large in comparison to his scrony body! Or maybe it was just his hair that was so large? But my, oh my, had he grown into his head/hair. He was 17 then and I was 20. Awkward? Not really, I had always thought he was more of a mature person than all the other guys his age. We talked for a while and even though he was late for curfew he didn't go home. He was there to help a friend in need. We didn't intend on loving each other... it kind of just happened. :) He drove me home and walked me to the door where he asked for a hug. Imagine an awkward, first date, end of the night, you don't really know this guy, and feelings are unsure, doorstep hug. It was just like that. I put one arm around him when reached for the second...my belly got in the way...but we kept trying. After that night I knew, I knew he was the one for me! I've seen him nearly everyday after that. He was the only guy I had let see me like that, he was the only one to ask to feel the baby, the only one to ask for a hug, and the only one that could still love me to this day after everything we've been through.
Love him!
Thank you so much Gary Beary and ...
Happy TWO YEAR Anniversary!!!
