Divina

Even as childhood neighbors, I don't think Wayne and I ever thought that one day we would fall in love... When Wayne's family moved into our neighborhood back in the mid 70's, I must have been 2 years old... Our parents became the closest of friends... We were always invited to family functions and Wayne's family were always invited to ours... I've actually dug up a few embarrassing pictures to prove it... I think the one picture that sticks in my mind the most is dated circa 1978!!! Wayne and I both went to the same elementary school... I still remember watching him cross the street each morning... How cute! But then Wayne graduated.. little did I know it would be 3 decades before we crossed paths again... I can't ever thank my dearest friends Annelle and Vangie enough for giving Wayne and I the chance to meet again... It was at Vangie's baby shower when Annelle tried introducing Wayne to me... While of course I knew who he was, he had no idea who I was.... I remember Annelle saying, "Wayne, you remember Divina, right?" "No, I don't think so, the only Divina I know is Divina Andrada from 35 Rock Street" Wow! Wayne not only remembered my name, but my last name and street address... We all couldn't believe it... Wayne made me feel like the most important person in the world that day and he didn't even know it was me!!! It all began again, from that day forward.... I never get tired of telling our story... it's what makes me truly believe that God meant for us to be together...
