I was 18 going on 19 when I got my first job in November at a little sandwhich shop near where I went to college. I didn't notice him at first, but in February of the next year my DH started working my shifts and flirting with me. I didn't think he was a Christian, so I texted him and asked to come to a Christian event at my college.
He did, we went to get McFlurries afterwards and so it all began. I was young, shy and hesitant, but he (6 years my senior) was confident, friendly and committed. Such a wonderful pursuit it was, as he coaxed me one step at a time into falling in love with him. We dated for a year, and on our one year anniversary (Feb. 22nd 2009) he proposed on the mountain behind my house as the snow fell down around us.
We were married three months later. :) What amazes and touches me most is that he never ever gave up on me, although I gave him a million reasons to.
