The state of my life now.
With my heart being captured by Cheryl and Shayla and discovering what it feels like to have found *the one/s* that I want to hold my heart forever, I have found my happy place in this world. I have no hesitation in packing up what I have and running from my current life to be by their sides. No worries of leaving my great job and it’s many perks to follow my heart to be with who has taken it from me and to where it wants to be. Nothing has felt so right before and I’ve not been or felt so sure about anything like I am with this relationship.
As mentioned before I’m moving to be with my girls in May. May 23 being my last day at work and in Calgary with me leaving for home on Saturday the 24th. I look forward to this day very much and I know every weekend I visit my new family it will be harder and harder to leave.
I would also like to tell you that Cheryl and I will be getting married too. With my girls on holiday’s I found myself with the need to keep extra busy. At the start of this year I would have messed with this site. Because I only have Cheryl and Shayla in my head, all I can do is go on about my love and desire for them in these posts. So I started carving soapstone. I carved my girls a ring and a heart for each of them. I knew as I carved them that there would be a good chance I would ask Cheryl to marry me. I had little doubt that I would be let down but I was still scared and a little unsure if I would ask her. But as it turned out I did, I could not help myself as soon as I saw them walking down to me in the Vancouver airport on April 4th. I knew that this night was going to be the night I ask for her to be my wife. The ring I gave to Shayla represents my love and desire to be in her life as her father if she will have me. I am marrying her just as her mother. I’m confident that this what she wants too. The ring I made for Cheryl fit perfectly on her finger like it was meant to (the flow baby!). She said yes! I melted and was raised to a new level of happy I have not known before. With Shayla’s support, happiness and excitement I knew this was perfect. We are thinking of August/September of this year. I can not wait to call Cheryl my wife and Shayla my daughter and to grow our family, to be happy forever with my girls.
For you folks that see us moving so fast, keep in mind you are looking at all this through your eyes and experiences thinking of what you would be or feel like. We know what we feel and who we are and what we would like to see in the future. Those who know and love us most will know that we will be just fine and know that we are not all that naive. We do have a combined age of 74 (ouch), to break that down that’s 21 years old each with 32 years of combined life experience. We are happy to stay in the *flow* together and we are both very happy. We know what we have found with each other.
The year of the rat, I’m a rat and this has been the luckiest year yet. I am the luckiest man I know to have the love of two wonderful beautiful ladies who are waiting for me in BC, at home. To be married to Cheryl will be my dreams come true, to be a father to her daughter Shayla makes me proud and fills my dreams in perfectly.
I’d like to add here also that I will be changing my name in this marriage. Not conventional I know and without giving detail that I’m not interested in sharing in this venue, just know that I do have my personal reasons that have been with me for a long time. Since Cheryl would be happy for me to take her name I’m very proud and excited to do so.
As for this website. I will be rethinking it all, again. I would like to make this our family site where we can share our adventures, photos, feeling and stories. But who knows and all in time. I will mess with it as I feel I want to for now. I do need to work with the Google map plugin I know. Lots going on in life.
I am as happy as I could ever imagined I could be, getting married and becoming a dad!!! Thank you world this is my stop.
