I know for me, in the beginning, there was a series of defining choices I had to make for myself. I had no idea that those few short months would be the beginning of my happily ever after. Having him in my life... I have my best friend. There is so much that he has given to me, that we have given to each other. In such a short amount of time my world has seemingly spun up around me. We have built a love and a trust in each other that is so amazingly strong I never would have believe it could exist. We have created a new home for us both. We have created a new life with each other that is so much more than what we had before. He has given me my children - which, if you know me, you know exactly what they mean to me and how much I have always wanted them.
I think about my life before May 26, 2006 - the day that we both admitted we were crazy for each other after 16 years of friendship. I realize how little I knew about true happiness at that time.
After not being able to get him out of my head for weeks, I realized that there was something more to our friendship.
I realized that I was so perfectly comfortable and happy with him at all times.
I realized that he is a good man who has the intelligence and the capacity to do so much in life.
I realized that unlike usual, my head wasn't in charge, my heart had taken over and rationality and logic didn't matter.
I realized how much I really loved him - really loved him - regardless of what I needed, I wanted him to be happy. This was a feeling I had never known before.
Over the next few months I realized how much I needed him in my life.
I can't even imagine where I would be without him. I almost can't believe that we were almost too afraid to take the chance. I am so thankful for him every day.
