So here I am, smiling just because tomorrow is my first wedding anniversary and as I look back I can't help but feel thankful.
There was a time in my life when my road was shaky and I wasn't thinking much about my actions, it was a time when my life didn't have a purpose, a time when my priorities were all messed up.
One day I received a friend request from a guy who lived in a different state (PA) on FB and that was the beginning of something special, he said hi and that's when all started, we texted a lot, he made me laugh all the time but that was about it, my mind was still busy on the wrong things.
Unfortunately, because of my bad decisions I had to moved from NYC where I was currently living to CO and the weekend before of my departure he drove for 3 hours just so we could meet. The chemistry was there, the connection was instant and huge but unfortunately I had to leave and I was one of those who thought that a long distant relationship was the synonym of failure but life proved me wrong, instead of him disappearing like most of my "friends" did he made sure to always be in contact, he cheered me up when I was sad, he was always asking if I needed anything, he was always there for me, Skype became our best friend, we used to have video chats every single night before he went to bed, there were night when I cried after saying bye and wished I could hug him.
After the first 3 months of being in CO I went to NYC for the holidays and that's when our dating officially started, but I had to go back and saying good bye was so hard, but I made sure to travel once a month just to see him ...I have to honest, I was always afraid that he was going to get tired of the distance, there were bad days when he used to get frustrated because he missed me, because all the people he knew had a regular relationship, they had their significant others next to them while his girlfriend was in west bubble f**k but he then reminded me that he wanted to be with me and that he couldn't wait for the day to finally be together forever.
On May he asked me to moved in with him and I said yes, I didn't even think it twice, we just had to wait for my Valentina to finish school, on June 2nd I flew to Philadelphia with 5 huge bags and a 6 year old, I was scared but excited and that's when our life as a family began. Since day one he has treated my daughter like his own and their relationship is amazing, 6 months after being living together he got in one knee in front of huge audience and asked me to be his wife, a month after our engagement we found out we were expecting a baby and then got married. It was a courthouse wedding, very simple, only my daughter, our mothers and siblings were there but it was one of the most beautiful days of my life. The same day we moved to our own apartment (yeah that's my crazy but wonderful life) and life has been great.
He is a great husband and a great father to our 2 daughters, he makes me feel loved and special, he holds my hand in public, he helps a lot with the cleaning and the baby, he is a hard working man and has gifted me with the opportunity of being a stay at home mom ...he is an amazing man and I'm the luckiest woman for having him in my life, I always thank god for choosing him to be my husband and when I think about the girl I was before meeting him I feel like he saved me, he gave meaning to my days, he changed my life in the most amazing way, he treats me like a queen and because of him is that i now believe in true love, he showed me that not all men are the same, he gives me a life full of happiness and I fall deeper in love every day ...I know I'm not an easy person to deal with but he puts up with my craziness, he is my husband, my confidant, my best friend, my lover, the father of my daughters ...he is the love of my life
**Happy first anniversary babe, the first of many more to come because just so you know you are stuck with me for life and eternity**
