I met Tom at my apartment complex, where he was working as a maintenance tech. He would do the grounds keeping right by my front door every morning on my way out to work. We'd say "Good Morning!" but never much more. Shortly, Tom and another girl had moved into an apartment right across the parking lot from me. One summer night, I had a few friends over for beers, and my air conditioner broke. I had to call the emergency maintenance number to have it fixed...well what'ya know...Tom came to the rescue. I offered him some beers, and got to know his name, and that he lived across the street. He finished his job, and went back home. I thought he was so cute & flirty, and was always smiling, but he didn't ask me for my number, so I thought that the girl he was living with must have been his girlfriend. So I didn't ask for his number either. And he went home, and I went back to hangin with my friends. The next day, he was by my door, greeting me Good Morning! with that big 'ol smile again. And I just had to find out if that was his girlfriend, and if so, why is he always trying to talk to me? So I said "Good Morning! Uh..Tom, is that your girlfriend at your apartment?" He had a disgusted look on his face, and replied "Noooo, that's my sister." I was so happy; I yelled "Well can I have your number then?" He quickly gave it to me, and we've been together every day since. Since that day, we had a little girl (now 4 1/2). She is our world, and we've given her our complete and full attention. We’ve lived through everything a married couple already has, but haven’t had the ceremony yet. Now, we’re finally making it official, telling God and the world, that we were meant to be together, and there is no better match for us. We have a beautiful family, and I’ll be so proud to call him my husband.
