SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT

It has been bought to my attention that I wasn't very clear on a few things. I have always wanted to be a published author, and since this is the closest I'm probably going to come to it, I want NOTHING left to question or the imagination. This is only my 2nd blog posting, so if it's kinda raw, please forgive me. I am engaged to a great man who deserved a little bit more time to be acknowledged. We have had to endure 5 years of people looking at and judging us based on the fact that we are an interracial couple. I'd like to think that America has grown as a country enough to accept a mingling of the races, but apparently, it hasn't. Either way, I couldn't find a better fiancee or father. It hasn't always been roses and skittles and peaches and cream, but it's been great and fun and throughout our relationship, I've grown in many ways. He's helped me to be a better mother and person and it's his opinions that drive me to be more than the norm. Everybody needs a rock, and for me, it's him. And whoever said that chivalry is dead, doesn't know my sweetheart. He's always strong for his family, even when he doesn't have to be. I can talk to him and know that he wont judge me, and he pushes me to be the best that i can be. He's like my own personal army recruiter. Fred and Ginger. We mesh well together. Like two pieces of a very different puzzle that you'd never think would work, but somehow, magically, the pieces were made for each other. I wonder if he were to write a blog about me, what it would say. Always the stoic strong-man, could he say that he loved me more than the next breath that he took, the way I can. Or that his heart speeds up when i walk in a room, even now. Or that he still finds me beautiful at 7 am when my hair is all tied up and my pillows' stuck to my face from all the drool because I was dreaming of ice cream(which I LOVE and cannot have because I'm lactose intolerant). I have no idea what he would say, but i know that I could walk from Kentucky to Japan, and NEVER find someone better than him or more suited for me than he is. I know, I know, it's pretty sappy, huh? Well so what!! I'm a sap and I'm in love and between me and you, it wasn't the ice cream that made me drool(wink,wink) it was him. Anyway, I hope that any and everyone who I am lucky enough to have read this looks at their special someone through new eyes and treasures everything that they share together, even the bad. Cause I know i do!
