We Signed a Lease

Day 12 We signed a lease, together, we have our own place. 596 days! Not going anywhere until April 2017, and maybe not even then. OMG, we have a place and we get to start building our lives together. We are beyond excited! We went and looked at washer and dryers and we walked through […]

Dirty Differences

Two days ago, I discovered some things about Peter and his views on equality. I was troubled, to say the least, and I really didn’t know what to do…I have friends whose spouses disagree on major issues…those are just things that they don’t talk about, at all, for the sake of their marriages because they […]

Calypso/Heartbeat

That’s his ringtone and vibration. Every time my phone makes that sound, my heart smiles. Every “Good Morning” or “Thinking of You” or “I Love You” text I get in the morning just makes me so incredibly happy…Like I’m the most special girl in the whole world!

New Experience – Mass

Religion was important to Peter. We’d had many discussions about God and his role in bringing us together and our appreciation of this beautiful opportunity we had been given to love and cherish each other. He had even pointed out that the week we moved into our house was the start of classes one would […]

Moving Day

We are IN!! I can barely believe it…life is just happening so fast! We got a lot done today but will be doing stuff for a bit to get everything taken care of. This man…what can I say! He said he would do it and he did. Here’s to love and happiness. Our home…not his […]

Ring Design

Day 11 He was pretty busy today working on a project but he still made time throughout the day to send me a message or two… I did stop in to a bridal/special occasion store at the mall and looked at dresses… I dealt with another cautionary phone call, which I’m sure there will be […]

Wrapped with Love

Day 10 Today was rough. Very rough for me. But him, he just makes it all seem so simple. He took everything I threw at him today and he caught it, wrapped it with love and kindness, and gently handed it back to me. He met the BFF today after she had voiced her many […]

St. Joseph

Day 9 We’re both laying in bed reading the early encounters we shared on KIK… He talks about how he will love my girls as St. Joseph loved Jesus. He will use that example as inspiration as we begin our lives together under one roof. He sets us up to view the house. After he […]

Soft Kisses in the Night

Day 8 We spent the night curled up together…every once in a while, he would kiss me softly on my neck or shoulder or arm. He makes me feel perfect. He loves all the things I see as flaws. He makes me feel sexy and beautiful and so very loved. He gives me more confidence […]

Two Chairs, In the Back

Day 7 I found a little time to get away with just him. No kids… It was beautiful. We sat together in the coffee shop, holding hands, staring at each other…sometimes in silence, sometimes engaged in entertaining conversation. We share a connection and a love that we can’t explain…our afternoon together was the most magnificent […]
