... that lead me straight to Brian! On February 7th, Brian and I celebrate our first "date". That was five years ago. Significant? Maybe not to some, but to us~ yes! You see I spent the first 15 years (yes, you read that correctly) of my adult life making decisions on my own, not asking my Heavenly Father for advice, guidance or blessings. Where did that get me? Down a long hard, dry, rotten road. I did everything I knew I shouldn't do...and in the long run, I ended up divorced, single and pregnant and on a road to self destruction.
What changed? My parents. They had done all they could do, tried all they could try. I was destroying myself... at a very rapid pace. They prayed to God, and put my life in God's hands. That may sound insignificant to you... but that's when things started to change. I realized I didn't need a man to complete me... Austin didn't need just "anyone" to be a father figure... I had a God who wanted to provide that for us.
I met Brian in the "untraditional" way... on the internet. The safest? Probably not. I can tell you this though, from the first moment we met on February 7th, 2005, when he took my hand, it felt as if I had come home. The safest place I had ever been.
God knew what man I needed in my life... and when I would meet him. I love Brian more than anything. He's my friend, my confidant, my whole world. What's best... he accepted the whole package, Austin and Harley. He got a three for one special.
Don't get me wrong, we've had our ups and downs.... but God did Bless the Broken Road that led me straight to Brian! I love you Droop!
