53 Days Till I Do

Feb. 16th

25 Days!!

Cassie and I are driving the boys to school. Its about 7:55am. Its cold and windy, its Florida it should be Hot and Sunny! Its February, :(. The boys received a hair cut yesterday and they look sharp. They are both wearing their hats to school. Go figure. I guess they do not like the hair cut as much as Cassie and I do. The hair will grow back we tell them. Dillon sitting in the back seat pulls his hat down a little more trying to hide the short hair. We pull up to the car drop off and let the boys out and tell them to have a wonderful week, we love you, and we will see you in week. Ethan blows a kiss a Cassie as Dillon the shy one is embarrassed about Mom's "I love You" and keeps walking. :)

I remember Elementary School and Middle School. It was accepted for Mom to say I love you out loud in 5th Grade but 6th Grade it was uncool. Total embarrassment in Middle School. Go figure. Maybe its the parents' job to hold back a little at that age. Who knows. I am just lucky that the love in me is brought out about the three boys and Cassie. Their was a time when I heavily guarded that place in my heart. The Castle walls were thick, high, and reinforced with steel rebar (the steel rods that are used with concrete so that concrete does not crack.) It is just amazing how Cassie side stepped the fortress walls and opened the side door to my heart. She is the one. She found a side door in my heart that I did not know existed. From our first lunch date their was something about her that I knew was different. I just knew she was the one. Since that day, the journey we have taken has been amazing, fantastic, awesome, and beyond. I never knew I had this much love to give. She and the boys have truly changed my life for the best. Steppy D is me.
