Closer in First entry

I am getting closer to the 16th. I feel like I have my feet under me. The kids are starting to get used to cleaning up behind themselves. Work is going well. We are a little slow at work, but they are still finding things for me to do. I am currently training the newest Project Manager. We seem to be working well together.

L and I are doing well. We are still moving forward and growing together. It’s crazy because I have fallen head over heels for her. We talk about everything. We are truly open with each other. It’s different. We have prayed together, we have shared our daily struggles and gotten the views and opinions of each other. We seem to value the thoughts of the other. That’s something new to me. I love the idea we are on the same page and we want to build together. I love the feeling that she is willing to do the work. As I have said, she is very pretty, but her mind and her heart is what I value the most. I see a woman that appears to be willing to do the work with me. Last night she shared a list of 33 items she wanted in a future man. At the risk of sounding arrogant, I did match all 33 of them. I flirt with the line of staying grounded and letting myself just get carried away with the fun of imagining what the future could be. I am excited to meet her people and introduce her to mine. All in time. We will get there. If we are a long term thing, there isn’t a rush. I see the need for deliberate steps to avoid having a life time of being married and lonely. That is probably the only thing worse than being single and lonely. I’ve been there, done that. I am enjoying the infatuation stage. But, it wont last forever and if we don’t take the time to build right now, when it wears off, we are going to be in trouble. The kids deserve more than that. With that said, I am so incredibly excite for the next time I can see her.
