Brea, I hope that you’re reading today. Thank you for marrying the wrong person eight
years ago. If you hadn’t have gotten
married when you did to the person that you did, I wouldn’t have been your maid
of honor and wouldn’t have had a reason to come to Atlanta on December 31st,
2003. I met Don eight years ago today
and I had my last first kiss at the stroke of midnight—we were leaning against
a table and we both pretended that we weren’t next to each other on
purpose when the ball dropped. Don said
something like “Well, you’re closest”. From
that night on, we were together. I look
back at everything we’ve done together in the last eight years and I am so thankful
for that plane ride and that God knows what he’s doing. Good times or bad times, I am a happy girl.
Don, I want to thank you for not caring that I lived in a
different state when we met. The long distance thing was
crazy to a lot of people and I’m glad that we didn’t listen to them. Also, thank you for not scaring me when we first
realized that we were supposed to be together.
You played it perfectly with a girl who was so scared of relationships
and falling in love. How could I say no
to a person like you? I thank God every
day for everything that I have, but especially for you and the kids.
Happy New Year’s Eve, everyone! I hope that 2012 is full of love and
happiness! Remember not to
pick some crazy, unobtainable New Year’s Resolution!
