So, our story starts December, 2010 on a winter night. I was talking to mutual friend of ours via Skype. We caught up on news and then she brought up this guy's name..Jim. She said he was an great guy and that he holds the same beliefs as I do. I could tell she was trying to play match maker..so I just played along for fun. Unfortunately I did not set a good impression the first time I met Jim. Everyone in the world wanted to call, text, or chat online. Jim tried hard to keep the conversation going but I would have to excuse the conversation to take a phone call or text. Looking back now I realized how patient he was with me. Fortunately after that night he wanted to continue to keep in touch with me so we would Skype, text, or chat on Facebook. A few weeks of texting constantly (no exaggeration), skyping, and talking over the phone, Jim decides our friendship is ready for a new chapter and asks me as romantically as he can to be his girlfriend. I could tell Jim was a great guy...
I visited with my Mom on Sunday at her assisted living home. I always enjoy chatting with her about her day and hearing stories from the past. My Mom gave me one of the best compliments that day by saying that I look like her Mom with my short hair style. I enjoy compliments, especially from my Mom about my Nonna! I am blessed to have a beautiful Mother and Grandmother (who is in Heaven now) who love God and have an inward beauty as well as an outward beauty. My Mom and I haven't always been close and we are still working on having a better relationship but I do know that she truly loves me, my family, and God. She can come across as mean to people who don't know her and opinionated and stubborn to people who do know her...but in her heart she wants nothing more than to be with Jesus and see the rest of her family be with her in Heaven.
Jim and I went to the North American Auto Show in Detroit with some friends. It was a lot fun! We were surprised at how awake Zalen was for the whole time. So many new and shiny things every where for him to look at. Jim grew up going to the Auto Shows here but this is my firs t time. I didn't think I would like it as much as I did. The best part for me was sitting in The Voice chair. The Voice is one of my favorite shows so I was pretty overly excited for a while. ha
