I am a Wife

I am a wife to Walter for almost 13 years. Wow, I can't believe it has been that long! Before we met I did not want to get married or have children. But like they say, when you know, you know!

My friends always get a kick out of the story of how we met- at a red light! It was just like a scene out of a movie. He was with his friend and I was with mine. We kept being beside of each other at each red light and glancing over at each other. Finally we spoke to each other. Long story short, he and his friend came to see me and my friend at work the following night and the rest is history. We have been inseparable ever since! We were engaged after nine months and married after 14 months. I wouldn't change a single second!


He is my best friend and my soul mate. I still get excited when I hear his car pull in the driveway. When something good happens, I can't wait to tell him. When something bad happens, it is his shoulder I want to cry on. I am so proud to walk by his side and hold his hand.
When Walter and I met, neither one of us went to church or knew much about God. After his mom passed away, we started going to church on a regular basis. This relationship with God has made us grow closer together as we grow closer to Him. I thank God everyday for that red light!
