30 Things: Hardest Part of Growing Up, Love & Accomplishments

· 2 Comments

I actually started on this post a few days back but I didn’t get a chance to post it…

What’s the hardest part of growing up?
Honestly, I don’t think I just had a hard part of growing up. Of course all kids are teased at some point in life, but there is nothing that stuck with me. I would say the hardest thing I dealt with at a young age was losing my grandparents on both sides. And I don’t want to cry while typing this so I will keep it short but I would give ANYTHING to have them here now! I would love to see all the grand-kids now, the great-grand-kids, hear the wisdom from them now that all of us are older. I would love to just hug them once more. Okay I am done now because I am sitting here doing exactly what I said I didn’t want to do today…

I must admit I skipped a few of the topics…it was just too much! HA! No I started to feel like I was on a job interview. 

Describe when you knew your spouse was the one or how I fell in love.

I honestly cant remember the exact time but I KNOW for a fact we fell in love with each other FAST!!! I felt it right away but I didnt want to jump in too soon, but I knew something was different about our relationship. Even the talking on the phone prior to us going on our first date.  After the first couple of dates we had to be around each other, we talked all day on the phone, if we weren’t on the phone together we were texting each other. It was crazy!!! We talked on my way to work, during my lunch break he would be on his way to work and we talked then. We talked on his breaks at work, then on his way home from work. Then when we weren’t working we were together! Everything moved quickly, and we knew immediately that we wanted to be together forever.
