My dream of finding the Love of my life finally came true. Let's start from the beginning...
I play on a women's volleyball team and for the past year, we had a lovely lady named Kelly join the team. :) We saw each other weekly, had our little chit chats, nothing too crazy, but little did I know this girl had a something sneaky up her sleeve... :) After the season had ended I hadn't talk to her in some time. I got a text from her on a Friday afternoon. Yep, I remember it all so clearly. She asked if I were single... I remember instantly getting such a good feeling about this... She hadn't explained anything to me as to why she was wondering, but I remember clear as day that something good was going to come out of this... If i recall my exact words were... SINGLE AS THEY COME...! She then told me that she has this super cute brother in law that is single as well... And that she wanted to get my permission to talk to him about me first... Sweet Kelly :) Being that I had this super good feeling, I told her to talk to him ASAP! \
So a week or so had passed and I hadn't heard from this mysterious boy, I then talk to Kelly and she said that he had a rough past with the ladies and is scared to jump into something... So I told her to give me his dang number and Ill "man" up and do it! (totally not something I would usually do) So I texted this boy on Saturday... he took forever to responded... talk about nervous and thinking my good feeling was a total BOMB... HE FINALLY TEXTED! YIPPPEEE! We texted back and fourth for awhile then said our good nights... The next day, I was stubborn and didnt text (neither did he...punk :)) Then that Monday I texted again... I swear I'm usually never this persistent with a boy... we talked again... slowly getting more out of him... Tuesday came, no talking... At this point, I was giving up hope... another one down the drain... UNTIL!!!! Wednesday bright and early I got a message from LUKE! :) From then on out we did/have not stopped talking... We decided to meet that Saturday... I was seriously dying to see this sweet boy in the flesh. Saturday came and we decided it would be fun if he came over to hang out with my roommates and I. More people to make it less awkward this first time around, ya know? Can I just tell you that the moment he walked through that door, I knew he would be my husband. I always thought that was such a corny thing when people would say that, but now I believe with my whole heart when you meet the man of your dreams you just know... That evening we played games, laughed a ton, then decided to go dancing... That boy can shake it on down! Such a turn on when a guy isn't afraid to grab a girl and dance! Points to Luke. That next week at work the little charmer sent me a beautiful boutique of flowers... Double points to Luke... Then we went to Dinner for this first time that week... The convo didn't stop. It was the most comfortable date in the world. awww, I'm totally smiling at the computer screen as I type this! That same week he dropped a bomb that he wanted me to meet his parents... MEET YOUR PARENTS AFTER A WEEK OF HANGING OUT?! yikes! Talk about pressure to impress! Apparently that was a huge deal to meet the parents soooo soon because that is not a typical Luke move from what Kelly and his mom have now told me :) So yes, I met the parents... Sweetest people in the world. Seriously, I feel so blessed...! I swear to you... I have not met or been with a more caring, loving, sweet, emotional, and giving man in my life. He makes me feel safe, loved, and the most important person in this world. Its so amazing how easy everything has been with Luke. It just feels so right. :))) He hit it right off with my family... At times I think my parents love him more than me ;)

I.LOVE.HIM.
I'M ENGAGED!!!!!! EEEEEEEKKKK!!!! That story is on its way! :)
I had a smile on my face the whole time :)
ReplyDeleteEverything you said is what I hoped for you and what I knew you deserved and what I KNEW You would get. He treats you the way you must be treated because you ARE that special, Whit. You are. You are such a catch and I wonder if Luke knows how lucky he is.
I'm so thankful for Luke. I'm so thankful that he makes my girl so happy.
I love you so much! I'm so happy you're happy! It makes me heart calm and happy :)
Love you!
