8 years and counting!

Sometimes I find myself thinking back through my relationship with Aaron...and lets be honest i have been smitten for a LONG time...I met Aaron when I was 15...it was actually the second time we met In September of 2001 at the Gospel Tabernacle Convention that I first found myself attracted to him. It was the Saturday night service, before the service actually began Aaron and i ran into each other out in the hall and chit chatted for a few mins, then through out the service i kept catching him looking at me...all though i think he wanted to be caught:) After service we ate our meal together and visited..and then my age came out..OOPS! See Aaron was in college and when he found out I was only 15 and a sophomore in high school...well I think he was scared off:)...A few weeks later I found myself thinking about him ALL the time, so i contacted a friend in coudersport and got his E-mail. Now this was so out of character for me...but i E-mailed him and have no idea what excuse I gave for writing him but whatever I said worked:) Aaron came up to see me just a few weeks later on October 26Th for a youth rally...and this people is when I fell in Love :)..That night someone asked us how we met..and before i could dive into the story Aaron says and I quote " It was Destiny" Cheesy? Very much so but a 15 year old girl it was music to my heart! Then at the end of the night I remember standing outside thinking great here comes the awkward goodbye scene..and Aaron so smoothly says how happy he was to have shared the evening with me and then kissed my hand and left...I was awestruck and...well my heart was his from that night to present day. That by no means means that things went smoothly from that day forward...Did I mention that this was the night that my Dad first met Aaron too..and lets just say my dad wasn't so thrilled with his 15 year old daughter crushing on a 19 year old college student. The next 5 years where filled with many ups and downs, but one thing remained true...that as much as I wanted to hate him at times, I never did....My heart always belonged to Aaron David Wright. It was August 1st of 2005 that Aaron asked me to marry him, and August 19th 2006 that I did just that, with my dad's blessing of course :) Now 3 and half years and 2 kids later, I am even more in love with the man that captured my heart when i was but a girl:)
