It began with a little crush. I met him when I was 13 years old, and we really good friends.
He was a bit older than me and my family did not want us to date. We remained friends all those years. When I got divorced our friendship began to grow. He would always call and check on me and make sure the kids and I were doing fine. I started dating a few years after I got divorced and he even made sure that he met the guy to ensure that this one was better than the last. We started talking almost every day just casual, But I noticed that it was the highlight of my day to have conversations with him. His cousin approached me and said that he had always had a thing for me, I was shocked. But that got me thinking and I said something to him and we started dating soon after. Which was 19 years after we first met.
In Livermore California on April 12, 2014 we were married. It was a small ceremony at the nursing home where his father was, as he was too sick to leave. My daughter was my maid of honor and my son escorted me to the alter.
It was a perfect day.
