In the beginning it was the most unreal thing to ever happen to me. Hun and I met on the internet and things progressed quickly from there. He called me after I gave him my number telling me that it was Dominos pizza looking for Shana...bc he didnt know how to prenounce my name apparently lol. And from that night on from the moment the 2 of us were out of work we were on yahoo talking until the early hours of the morning, on many occasions we were online until we had to get ready for work again. For days upon days he was asking for my address so he could come see me, and I always refused, not knowing if he was some crazy man that was putting up a really good front. So I agreed to finally meet him but he had to meet me at my softball game, where there was witnesses...and bats if need be :). He got lost (surprise surprise) not only once but twice and finally I had him wait where he was while me and friend went to meet up with him. It was crazy, the emotions were way stronger then I ever thought. He took me and my friend out to dinner that night and we held hands the whole time, not being able to take our eyes off eachother for one second. I brought him back to my parents house to meet them and to hang out for a bit. When we were hanging out my dad got al paranoid and told my Mom that he could be here to kill us (hahaha), so we went outside to hang out (much better idea dad) lol. So for the next couple days, everyday he got out of work he drove 2 hrs down to my house to see me, even if it was only for a few hours and then drove back to Drum the same night. A weekend came and he finally was spending the weekend in Auburn, well when we tried to find him a hotel they were all booked, so we found one and he stayed there for the weekend, my Mom felt bad and agreed to let him stay with us on weekends, but only if we slept in different rooms. Two weeks later when we were out and about he took off for about an hour, when he finally met back up with me he was shaking and really nervous acting. I asked him what was wrong and he didnt answer. So we went out to the Jeep to drive back to my parents house and he proposed to me in the Jeep on October 14th 2006. It was perfect. We didnt tell my parents for some time because I knew how they would react to us dating for 2 weeks then getting engaged, but my Mom knew right away! She always knew everything before I said something, of course she did, she knew her daughter well. For months he tried to ask my dads permission for my hand in marriage and he would say things like "over my dead body". So one night we were sitting in the living room talking and Hun wanted to tell my parents what was going on, but he was too nervous so I had to do it, it was pretty funny watching him squirm lol.
Ever since the day I met my husband on the internet I knew with my mind, body and soul that he was ment for me, MY soulmate! Ive had such bad luck with men in the past but my husband....hes one of a kind, Ive never met another man like him. I love him with all my heart and I wouldnt trade him for anything in this world.
Just about 4 years later we are happily married, have a beautiful daughter and were going stronger than ever dispite this deployment. I just know when he gets home things will remain wonderful, I didnt say we were perfect, we do fight once in a while but isnt that in every marriage?!
I just wanted to share my story with you guys in hopes that it will make you laugh or smile. I know alot of people have many different stories of how they met their spouses, so as I was sitting here thinking about the past I thought Id write it out to look back on in words at some point and laugh. There is alot in there I didnt add...its TMI or whatever else you want to call it, just wanted to stick to the main points :).
My husband is the love of my life, always will be. Hes my best friend, my soulmate, my cuddlebug, and so much more! Hes a wonderful husband, and father! Stormie is a lucky little girl to have such a wonderful Daddy in her life.
But anyways, enough of me reminiscing on things. Its Mothers Day and Im going to go spend some time with my beautiful babygirl.
