Those are the very words he said, but what did we do in between February of my senior year of high school until the next June? I remember lots of phone calls, sitting together in church, getting together to watch movies [still on VHS], and writing letters.

Sweetheart, Will You Marry Me?
Leading Up To Our First Date
Looking back it doesn’t seem like my future husband and I courted for 2 years before our one year engagement. It was a slower start than it feels like now. My first rose came Valentine’s day during my Junior year of high school. He “had an extra one” and asked if I wanted it. [...]
The Letter That Started Our Courtship

To be totally truthful, our kisses are much better now after ten years of practice.
As a young girl I was taught purity and chastity. I personally decided [...]

Kissing helps keep your mouth and teeth healthy by activating saliva. Sounds gross, [...]
Show and Tell Friday – Rose Petals
On my birthday in December of 1996 I received my first bouquet of roses. That day there were six pink sweetheart roses, mixed with baby’s breath, tied with a pink ribbon, put in a glass vase, and delivered to my door. The card said To You, From Me; and I knew right away who it [...]
