From the first moment we talked, after we hung out for the first time that night in my dorm room and after I realized she wasn’t some Amazonianly-tall girl like the picture she sent me led me to believe, I was finally proven right after so many years of half-hearted joking.

I would sometimes say to her “you always loved me” when she would reminisce about how much of a pain-in-the-ass I was when we were dating in college. On again, off again, on again…you get the picture. All of that drama caused because I was impatient and not ready to succumb to the fact that deep down, I knew that she would be my future wife and I just wasn’t ready to for that yet. We’ve been together for over 8 years and married for over 4, 5 in November.

Last night, she told me that she realized I was actually right in saying that “you always loved me”. She remembered telling one of her old boyfriends that she that she was going to marry me one day. That was after we had only hung out a few times. We talked so much more than that. Old

Somehow, even way back then, we both knew that we would be married one day. We now have each other and our two little boys now. Who knows if she will actually let me try to have that little girl that I want so badly (not just me, you know how that works)? With Meri, Aaron and Eli, I’m feel very happy with my family and where we are at this point in our lives.

Who would have thought that by just talking to someone one day, it would turn into a full-blown family one day?!
