6 months into our relationship, my Mr. gave me a promise ring and promised that one day he would make me his Mrs. That ring never left my finger until it was replaced with a more meaningful one.
A few years later, he asked for my Father's permission to have my hand in marriage! My Father loved him like a son and without hesitation, gave him his blessing!
On Christmas Eve night, my senior yr of high school, he proposed!
Being that we were so young when we got engaged, we decided it would be best to wait to get married until we were both 21. Needless to say, that didn't happen!
God had different plans for us and decided my Mr. should join the navy and fight for our freedom. We were married on 3/31/09 when I was 19. A few weeks later he was shipped off to boot camp and our military lives began!
There's been a lot of ups and downs, plenty of moves, and two deployments since then. We've come a long way. The only thing that hasn't changed is our love for each other!
He's not only my husband, partner, and lover. He's the best friend I've ever had! We're both silly, a tad bit immature, and total weirdo nerds! But we enjoy everything about each other right down to our bad habits and imperfections! We get each other like no one else does! We're soul mates. And I look forward to the rest of our lives together more than anything! Because this is only the beginning!
To be continued...
