I think I met my hubby when I was 13 or younger. He was a friend of my brother's and hung out at our house all the time. We began dating when I was a junior in high school. I took him to my junior and senior prom. He was older so I was dating a college boy. Woohoo! He came home on some weekends to keep the love alive. Rarely I would visit him for the day at college.

Why did I choose to marry him? He was a true gentleman and always has been. I loved that and still do. He has always been thoughtful and attentive. (He's right next to me now nursing me through this colinoscopy prep. We've had a few big laughs.) We were extremely compatible while dating for years so he finally popped the big question and I answered in a split second.
