amazingly enough, I opted to leave this paper intact...yes, I went against all my instincts...but to satisfy my fussy cutting need, I used my exacto to cut some parts here and there for some pop.
My hubby & I...how can I explain how we began...
I have to say it wasn't because we were actively seeking someone to spend the rest of our lives with. We had both been hurt really bad. I was in a long relationship that wasn't a healthy one. He thought he had found the "one" in an older lady who saw he wasn't ready to settle down....her loss,. my gain!!! :wink:
We just wanted to have fun. Just get together, go out, forget worries and trouble, laugh, play, just plain have FUN. I made sure to tell him just that. I didn't want anything serious. He made it loud and clear that he agreed.
I can't say exactly how it happened. But I fell in love. The thought of losing him hurt. But how could I tell him I took my "terms" back? I was so worried...I couldn't see that he did have feeling for me as well.
This month on the 24th, we celebrate 12 years of wedded bliss, 4 teenyterrors, lots of blessings and some pain intermixed in these years, but everything we've gone through has been together. Solid. As one. Funny how it all started out un-intended.
I love my boo. And thank God for him.
Now in case you were waiting for a video!!!!
This is from Group1Crew's newest CD (DH got it for me Sunday and I have it in the car, take it inside and listen while I am working...I love how upbeat this CD is.
Now this song is just a little reminder! I go through days when I look at myself in disgust...we all need to see the beautiful in us.
have a great weekend!
