C. Brian

You picked it.

You are all curious about Brian.

I'm not even sure how to begin because its hard to explain Brian.....lets just say my situation with Brian is a lot like Shania Twain.  I've been writing this post in my head for a couple of weeks, trying to figure out how the heck to introduce him!

When I got divorced I honestly thought I was to be single for awhile and then maybe start dating in a year or so.  People told me I wouldn't be single for long.  I was like

YEAH RIGHT.  WHATEVER.


Once again, God is like, well your thoughts and plans sound great, but I like MY plan better.  I've been through a lot this past year.  I mean A LOT.  I honestly believe that Brian and I were supposed to meet.  I would have NEVER met him if things did not happen the way they did.

This. Man. Makes. Me. Happy.



I got questioned about my divorce post when I said that "I am happier then I've been in a long time".  I THOUGHT I was happy before.  I really did.  I was 100% committed to that relationship.   I was not just playing marriage before.  Those of you who know me know better than to ask that question.  

However, after everything that has happened, after meeting Brian and having him in my life.
NOW I know what true happiness is.   No one has ever treated me the way Brian treats me.  It takes a little getting used to!  (and look at those eyes..I mean seriously).  He wants to spend time with me, tells me I'm beautiful inside and out, watches girlie movies with me (sorry babe. your secret is out), likes to cook, is a bit of a neat freak, and the way he looks at me makes me melt.  He is good to Drew, Drew adores him as well.  He also has a son (3 year old, 6 months younger than Drew).   We are on the same page about everything, sometimes he is farther on the page then I am but I catch up quickly. ;)  I'm typically a little more cautious than he is, he JUMPs right in, where I think about everything first.  

He seems a little too good to be true and truthfully I am waiting for the bomb to drop.  I hope it never does and I don't think it will......but I've stopped planning my life....remember. :)  Now that I've rambled and maybe made a few of you gag from gushiness....I'll move on.



I know that now Brian has been introduced to my blog, I won't be able to stop talking about him.  I feel 16 again. Its Crazy.  This might be hard for some of you to read, but I am done living my life because of what other people will think.  I have lived my life that way for 33 years.  I need to do what makes me happy (and Drew happy) and right now we are happy so I am going with it.   If you don't like what I write, then you don't have to read my blog.  This blog is for me.

 

We have heard all the "that's cool, just make sure you take it slow"....  "are you guys sure you are ready for a relationship".... "just make sure you are ready"....."is this a rebound?"....."you met how?".... WE KNOW. OK.  We have talked about ALL of this.  We communicate REALLY well and we talk about everything.  I thought I would have MAJOR trust issues with men.  I trust this Man with all my heart.  We are not teenagers and we are grown (single) adults and we know what we want in life.  (well, I guess I'm not single anymore....I have a boyfriend...eek! :) )

The ONLY complaint I have is he doesn't REALLY like to have his picture taken. :)  I'll get him past that because he likes to make me happy and taking pictures makes me really happy. :)



I cannot stop smiling when he is around or when he's not around for that matter.



Its amazing to me that after the year I have had, that right now. in this moment. I FEEL LUCKY.

Soooooo, now you have all met Brian.  Next post will be about Cancun!!
