One of my favorite songs is a duet by Richard Marx and Donna Lewis. In it, they speak of being strangers and starting on a journey together. Neither of them expect any of the hardships they go through, but eventually, the two find themselves at the beginning with each other.
From the moment I laid eyes on a seventeen-year-old Auburn haired boy, I was smitten. He had this cute half-smile and don’t even get me started on his laugh and sense of humor. He seemed to be the complete opposite of me, but in reality, we were exactly alike in all the right ways. We both shared same music tastes, same video game preferences, and same genre of books. We never expected to get to where we are now. We never in our wildest dreams expected to fall so hard and so fast for each other.
In less than 7 months, I will be walking down the aisle to become one with my husband. I will take an oath, and I will stick by it with every fiber of my being. In less than 7 months, I am marrying the man that is so much more than the man of my dreams. He’s my protector, my confidant, my lover, my best friend, but most of all…he’s the man God created for me.
I love you, Cody, with every fiber of my being. You will always have me ❤
