I remember about eight years ago when I was dating this guy.  We were really on and off breaking up two or three times that year.  I was a total schizo about the whole situation.  I was raising two small boys on my own and living out of a small 700 sq ft apartment.  There was no place for them to run around. I could barely pay my bills.  Things were tight.  And as for my romantic life I had this guy in it who just wouldn't quit no matter how hard I tried to run from him.  I was nervous about the whole blended family situation.  This guy has little experience with small children and he kept promising a future that would be "super easy."  I had lots of doubts.
I couldn't picture it.  After all, he votes Democrat and I vote Republican.  No way that can mix well.  And then he came to my doorstep with a magazine article about 
him and 
her and I had to laugh.
If they can do it, so can we. Tomorrow will be 6 years into our marriage that gets better and better with each challenging day.  My life feels so complete now that he is in it.
