A Fresh Start for Both of Us


Carl & I have been dating for about 2 1/2 months now but strangely, it seems like we've been married for 10 years. We are so at ease with each other...there's nothing that we can't talk about...or haven't talked about. It's like we are speed-dating. We feel like teen-agers...and based on some of our FB posts, we act and think like teen-agers too ! It's just that we are so happy and want the world to know what we found in each other. As I look back at some things I wrote, it becomes apparent to me that I may have been insensitive where my kiddos are concerned. I know they loved their Daddy so much and it probably hurt to read some of the things I wrote. I certainly didn't intend to hurt anyone's feelings. I am just so happy and want to share my feelings. Carl makes me smile, giggle, feel giddy...all those things you do when you are deeply, madly in love ! And don't get me wrong- I loved Rick so very much and I will never forget him...he was an amzing man. But I cried every day for a long time and it was time to get back to living and smiling again. Rick would not want me to be miserable. It was time for a new beginning. The first time I laid eyes on Carl Barger, I knew I would love this man. I thought he was so adorable when I opened my front door and he stood there and raised his eyebrows at me and grinned. We went to dinner but skipped the movie instead going to Melton Hill Park to....uh...well..park. See I told you we act like teenagers ! The security gaurd even had to run us off because the park was closed. We laughed a lot on that first date. Who would've thought I'd meet my next husband on FaceBook ??!! We are both so much in love and looking forward to travelling in the near future. I'm sure the kids will come around when they see what I see...he is a good, decent man and he is very good to me & my family. And most important...I love him with all my heart. And he loves me.
