I never could have thought something so crazy could happen to me. It was just another regular week of working and goofing off at nights with my people. Then one Sunday I go to church, just like I had been doing for a few months, and low and behold my whole life would change on that one Sunday. I was in church with my friends and Lilly just happened to invite her cousin to church one Sunday. I did not know she was there because I was sitting in the first of the two rows our group was taking up. Went through the whole service not knowing she was behind me the whole time. Church ends, we all stand up, I turn around and there she is!! It was Anna, the first time I had ever met her or seen her. I remembered a few old pics of Lilly's and family of theirs that had her in them, but I knew nothing about her. The only thing I saw was that wild curly hair and a beautiful smile! It may be weird, but anyone that knows me knows that I'm a teeth person. So her smile was the first thing I was drawn too. I introduced myself and I could not keep myself from smiling. We left church that day and ate breakfast then went to the lake. I was already crushing a little on Anna and trying to figure her out and find out some things about her. I went to my parents later that next day and showed my mom who she was and told her I thought I might be in trouble!! It was not long after first meeting that I arranged some haircuts so I could see her and get to know her a little more. Within a month or so we were seeing each other on the regular and it was by far the happiest I had ever been. She met my parents and they loved her, especially dad! Eveything came so easy for us, that had to be the best part. Turned out there were not many days that we didnt see each other for a month or two, and I was having a blast. I could not have asked for better timing for Anna to come into my life. It may not have been the ideal time for everyone, but it was all in a plan. God had tested me a lot and helped me through many tough situations just prior to meeting Anna, but I knew this was an answer to all that I had asked. Anna is wonderful; she works hard, does all she can for people, puts up with me and still loves me! I never would have thought that one day would change my life forever, but here we are! They say when you know, you know! |
