We met at the home of the Gardner's. One flash of those dimples and I was in love. The rest is history He was all I wanted and needed. Very easy on the eyes, charming, strong, funny and determined. I admired his never ending determination to live this life to its fullest. The more time we spent learning and connecting, the more I wanted. I was head over hills before I knew it and all I wanted from there was FOREVER! Here we are embarking on just that. My friend, my lover, my provider and protector. Wow is all I can say, thank God and your parents of course for this magnificent MAN!!!
I pride myself in being a gamesman. Meaning for some reason I think I know it all when it comes sports, cards, competition in general. So when we first met it came as a surprise to me that she knew how to play dominoes and I didn't. Without a doubt I had to be taught immediately. Luckily for me she had no problem staying up late nights with me as I was determined to conquer this game. Night after night she would sit with me talk about her day. Let me know things that was on her mind and I would do the same. It became so easy to learn this game as my teacher was so enjoyable to converse with. As time went on it became more and more evident to me that it was not the game I was interested in learning anymore, it was her conversation and time that I wanted more of. Talking with her, getting to know her as a person, realizing that she was enjoying me as much as I was enjoying her. The relationship was being built without us knowing it. The more we played the deeper we grew. Well 11 years later, and here I am pleased to invite everyone to come see the fruition of her willingness to teach and my desire to learn. What I thought was just a game became real love in my life.
