Mrs. McDaid

M's family was friendly with mine while growing up in Colorado. I relocated to eastern Pennsylvania nine years ago, and he relocated to Louisiana. We lost contact for most of that time but started chatting online and over the phone while I got through my freshman year in Kutztown, PA. In February he moved up to Western Montana to start a new life for us, and I joined him in May, a bare four luggage bags of stuff between us. Since then we've struggled through unemployment, lack of transportation (and an entire winter in Montana on foot isn't the easiest thing to get through, especially when you have a 2.5 mile walk to work at 6am...), and all manner of day to day stresses. But we've done it together, and have come to rely on each other for everything, and become stronger for it. He has a six year old son from a previous marriage in Louisiana, and we're having our wedding ceremony down there so he can take part. But I'm confident it just gets better from here :)
