May 30, 2010
Almost a year! :) It's been a very fast year, who knew time could go by so quick? Tonight David bought us a nintendo wii for our ONE YEAR anniversary. Can you believe it? A YEAR... :) I can honestly say that this past year has been the best year of my life. I never knew what true love was, he showed me what true love was through patience, honesty, he taught me to trust, which i used to struggle with trusting people. When i met david, i wasn't looking for a relationship, and neither was he, but for some reason God knew we needed each other, not only to heal from past wounds but we found that we were meant for each other, he is the other half to my heart, the missing piece to my puzzle of life, someone to always be there for me. I could not ask for more, i have a roof over my head, food in my stomach, and a new job, and a man that loves me no matter what. :) I know that he would give me the world if i really wanted it, but the only thing i want is him, forever. i know that no guy would ever love me the way he does, and i thank God everyday for him. not a day goes by that i'm not thankful for him. we have our fights, i'd much rather stand in the freezing rain with him than in the warm arms of anybody else. i'm very thankful for the year God has given to us and i pray that we have many more great ones like this one. :)

11 Months Later...
David and I started officially dating June 5th 2009. I would have to admit the day that we starting dating was the best day of my life. I never thought i would meet a man as great as him. :) He is so perfect in so many ways, I know technically that no man could ever be perfect, but he's perfect enough for me. :) There are so many reasons that I love David, he's such a great friend, and a great man to love. He's my best friend, I'm so lucky to be in love with my best friend. :) There is not a day that goes by that I don't thank God for introducing me to David and putting him into my life and my heart.
The back story of before I met David, I graduated high school in May of 2008. I went to a christian high school, and I went to church with my legal guardians. I got a job and started college in the Fall of 2008 at TVCC, a community college, which was also a secular college. I was no longer in the protective place of my christian high school, I know had to start making my own decisions. I started working on sundays and i had no desire to go to church on wednesdays, within that year, I walked away from God, getting me to go to church was like pulling teeth, I never wanted to go, and I was involved with things my legal guardians didn't approve of, i.e. drinking, partying, etc... anyways, within the time period of Sept. 2008-May 2009 I was involved with bad people, and I made bad choices. I'm glad I met David. I have had many people save my life over and over, whether it be a "foster" family type situation, to people taking legal guardianship of me, and I meeting someone that I didn't know that would change my life forever, I tell people that David probably saved my life, I was hanging out with the wrong crowd, one of my friends was a big influence on my life, he recently died of a heroin overdose, I tell people that if I hadn't met David i probably would have been in the casket right next to my friend.
God is good. All the time.
I know God loves me very much, because God has saved me over and over and forgiven me over and over for my sins. God is merciful, and loving, and he'll always be there with open arms and he may seem like he has left you, but in all reality he hasn't. He's just testing your faith in him. A few weeks ago David and I starting doing couples devotions together, reading the book of Proverbs, and reading a devotional book for couples called "The Love Dare". In addition, I'm also glad David and I have found a new church, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the church family there. They were warm and welcoming. I hope we continue going there and continue growing in God and in ourselves and with each other.
