Finding Me (3)

Finally to the end of my little saga, after staying with the friend and her brother, who had just returned from Iraq, he and I hit it off. We started dating rather quickly. He was my protector. He was always willing to stand up for me and stand beside me. He was so amazing through all the drama that ensued.

Within two months, we were engaged. By four months, we had little GM on the way. And, at six months, we were married. It truly was a whirlwind. This year, we will be celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary. So to all who warned me it wouldn't last, that we were moving to fast, your warnings went unheeded and the last five years have been magical. More than I could ask for.
