It began when sandra was hired at my gas station i was running . She was so sweet and soft spoken. I had convinced myself after a long and abusive marriage that I didnt deserve love or happiness. However as we worked together and I got to know her I was smitten. She was so beautiful, kind and her smile and laugh that just light up Any room she was in. I started to hope and wonder if maybe I had been wrong. 5 years later she continues to prove I was wrong and deserved love.

Our favorite is when I proposed. I took her and our 2 youngest kids on a carriage ride. I was so nervous we rode for about 20 min before my oldest (6 at the time ) started saying "dad dad !" Looking back and forth between me and the ring.(she had a Polaroid camera to take pictures and was nervous too) so I finnaly took a knee I was so nervous I almost fell out of the carriage and she said yes ! A party trolly next to us roared and cheered it was a magical moment .

First and foremost sandra was in a bad roll over accident where she severely broke her leg in several places and hurt her arm so some of it would go twords that . Secondly we plan on getting married in 2028 she has always wanted to get married on Friday the 13th in October . Lastly I would like to use the rest of it to start building twords our kids futures . Neither of us had parents that planned for our futures and we would like to do better for them.
