Looking Back - Part 1 The First Day

Wow! Yesterday David turned 40 and I sit and think where did the time go. So with this thought in mind I think I will go back in time to 1992. It is the year that David and I met. We met at a Young Single Adult Activity at my home stake (for those of you who are not members of the LDS church this is a graphical area of the church) Anyway, I was the YSA leader in my area and David had the same calling in his area so we were destined to meet. If we go back a little farther when I was set apart (blessed) to do this calling I was told that I would meet my future companion through my calling and I believed it with all my heart. So, I met David and I have to say that he was a skinny guy wearing maroon suspenders and me well I was wearing shorts with an open wound up and down my leg (the wound was caused by riding a horse with out the knowledge necessary to get the horse to do what I wanted, it decided to go up a hill and my leg was scraped up a metal fence post) if I covered the wound with anything it would stick and cause me great pain. One of his first thoughts about me was that he sure hoped that whoever married me would realize that the scar wouldn't be there in the here after LOL. I'm happy to say that you can barely see it now and I didn't even have to die to make it go away. Opps I'm rambling a little but this is part of our beginning. David found out that I was the YSA representative and introduced himself to me and then asked me to dance. We danced the whole night and had a really great time. David even sang me his raindrop song and I quoted one of my poems. It was great and I was really excited about meeting someone that was a member of the church that I belong to. When I left I had an hour drive home and I prayed as I was driving, it was a common practice of mine to pray in my car. I had to sit still and it kept my mind occupied while I was alone. As I was praying I decided to ask Heavenly Father for some Divine intervention and get David to ask me out. Hey I didn't date much because I choose not to date outside of my religion so this made a lot of sense. As I was praying I received a very special answer to my prayers and I knew that all would be okay. In fact I went home and woke my Daddy and told him that I had just met the man I was going to marry!! Poor Daddy, what a way to wake up. LoL To be continued
