How I met my Husband

Let me tell you a story..

August 2003 I walked into my new job, I was being introduced around and suddenly there he is, my heart started racing then as my eyes are looking him over what do I see ?? You got it a wedding ring, boy did my heart drop. Funny thing is he and I slowly became friends and found out we had many things in common. We started talking on MSN every night, he would tell me about his marriage, talk about his daughter. I found myself falling in love with him, however I was having a hell of an internal debate, I was not going to be the other woman. My husband marriage had already hit speed bumps before me, he had separated from his wife for two years and he had just gone back this past year, things hadn't really changed for them though. In my head I said do I buy this story? My heart was telling me he was sincere.

My husband calls me on the weekend and says to me I need to talk to you can I come over? Sure I reply, he comes over and needless to say my family is not happy they are worried I am setting myself up for a world of hurt. At this point I feel like telling them it's too late I am in love with him already. At this point I tell my husband that whatever decision he makes has to be for the sake of his daughter how he wants her to see a marriage is, no decision should be made based on what could be for us. Against all my rules we shared our first kiss that day before he left to think about our discussion.. My heart was pounding.

At this point I am sure you know what happened. You got it my husband decided he wanted his daughter to see an affectionate relationship. He was very careful not to bring me into her life right away. He was very smart that way. He also likes to point out that I asked him to marry me.

I now have a wonderful family... I have a husband who cherishes me and spoils me. My stepdaughter is as much mine as she is her moms. I wonder sometimes how I got so lucky?

Moral of my story sometimes you have to let your heart lead not your head ...

Darling I know you will read this.. To you I say thank you for wishing for me ..I love you with all my heart.
