Yesterday was mine and my sweethearts 2 year anniversary (I know its a day late but we ditched school and were out and about all day celebrating.) Sean and I both went to Green Valley High School he was a year ahead of me. I remember the first time that I saw him at early morning seminary I thought "that is the cutest boy I have ever seen." I crushed on him silently all of high school but we never spoke to each other or hung out together.
Shortly before Sean left on his mission to the Philippines we started to hang out because my little sister was crushing on his best friend Jason. I never had such a connection with someone. I mean instantly I felt like this kid was my best friend. I had so much fun with him and he treated me so great, then came the lame road trip that he went on. As he left he said he would give me a call when he got back... lets just say he never called me and went on his mission!! RUDE!!
After being out in the field for a few months Sean finally wrote me to apologize for what happened before his mission. We then began to write each other. Every time I got a letter from Sean it seemed to come at the most perfect time in my life.
I was dating this boy up at school, whenever I prayed about it the Lord told me to talk about marriage with him, this was a very hard time in my life and I lost a very, very dear friend in the process. Did I mention that the entire time Sean was on his mission Kelsey was passing me information and reminding me of Sean's importance in my life!
When fall of 2010 came around I was planning on moving home to have a diagnostic surgery done on me, my boyfriend at the time and I broke up. I moved back home, had the surgery and felt this sense of peace with the end of that relationship.
Sean came home from his mission and I anxiously waited to see him, I had this all planned out. My best friend Kelsey and I went shopping and bought the perfect dress to wear to his homecoming talk, I would walk in wearing "the dress" my hair and makeup done perfectly and Sean would be in awe. It did not go down like this at all. Sean called me and invited me to play wallyball with his family this meant I would be in sweats, hair in a pony and no makeup (also me looking ridiculous as the surgery I had was in my stomach and I wasn't fully recovered) I had such an amazing time.
Let me sum up from here, after 1 week we knew we would get married, we were engaged in December and Married in April 9, 2011 the best day of my life!!
I don't know if I could ever fully express how much I love this man, the Lord truly blessed me in having this amazing man as my eternal companion. He makes me laugh harder then anyone ever has, I mean he full on gets me to wheeze which has never happened before. He is so loving and patient with me as well as the most amazing father I have ever seen. Sean wanted me despite my being "broken" and has made my world so amazing! I love him so much and look forward to an eternity together! He is my happily ever after!
