It was love at first sight for me,, and I sent flowers , pictures and invited her to parties , but she did not take notice. I waited , and waited and waited until one day I said to her" Why don't you call me or acknowledge my invites. She smiled and said " I'm already taken , I have a boyfriend.. ' My heart sank lower than ever in my life , more than when I was not picked for my football team , or when I finished 2nd place at Track meet , even though I was rated the fastest runner at school. I was devastated, it was like my dream became a nightmare. It was worse than going up to my first acting audition for a Taco Bell Commercial and was told I was too good looking , thanks but no thanks..
But for the first time in my life , I knew what I wanted and I was not going to let a boyfriend or what stop my search for love. I knew in my heart that Girl was for me. The more I talked to her , the more I realized this is a dream girl, she is smart , beautiful , kind and hard working and hard to get. Well , I made a proposal ," I bravely said" Look, give me one date , and if we don't get along , I will never bother you again. She was hesitant , and perhaps for good reason. I mean I was extremely flirty and aggressive , but That's how I am. I see something I like I don't mess around. I take it.. Well she reluctantly agreed and our " first date was made" I said " Hotel Del Crown room , expensive date , great food, great service , great wine.. I paid the bill , or at least I thought i did.. The waiter or wine man came running after us in the parking lot.. yelling Sir, sir, I'm sorry you forgot to pay for the wine.. I was a little embarrassed but My girl was accommodating , so I went back and paid for it. We then took a romantic walk along the coast line surrounding the Del , nice moonlight night and cool ocean breeze running along our bodies.. We talked , or to be honest I did,, surprised, I talked about myself , my wants , dreams and goals in life. I think she was impressed I saw a sparkle in her eye, and I held her hand and gave her a nice kiss. Guess what she kissed me back. I knew I made a impression. Needless to say the night was Magical and before you know it , We were a couple!! The work place was in a buzz , I mean the stud looking guy with the new pretty girl.. It was and still is a match made in heaven.. She has given many fond memories like the Birth of my two wonderful sons.. The gifts of love and patience because of the Career that takes me away months at a time. She was strong and she was patient. I'm not the easiest person to live with, I'm hyper , attention - seeking , show off , loud mouth - trash talking martial Arts trained Entertainer and writer.. I know she has been very patient with my wild behaviour , and I admire her will to tolerate my actions. For that I'm so thankful God has blessed me with the greatest Angel and wife I could ever dream of. The years together and the memories are so abundant I cant recount all . But The Japan Years, the Italy Vacation , the Philippine Vacations were exciting and unforgettable. The memory of watching My eldest son Surfing the Beaches of Hawaii is classic and wonderful.. The winning of Mel Bear at Del Mar Fair many years ago was fantastic , another story at another time. the Purchase of our dream home , my dream truck , Our walks and talks and the simple times together are what I really cherish. I love her and I admire here , She's My idol , My saviour , My life.. Without her, I'm nothing .. She never ceases to amaze me with her skill and wisdom and power to get me through the hard times , which has been many , My career is a hard , lonely and stressful one that forces you to do many things you don't like to do , Like OC SPRAY , LONG WATCHCES in the cold or hot weather.Numerous training on everything , many times repeated on a weekly and yearly basis. The high demands of my job , stresses me out , and often I say , write or do things that are hurtful , because I'm frustrated , but despite my shortcoming.. I have many.. She stands beside me and guides me.. Like an angel , Like a faithful and respectful wife , Like a loving friend and lover.. For me to ever doubt her dedication and love is totally uncalled for ,.. and I pray such thoughts I had , were just that.. senseless thoughts caused by stress , frustration.. and insecurity..
My love , My Angel ,, My wife is everything I could ever dream of and I proudly claim her as the Apple of my eye My sunshine of my life ,, My main Lady.. Happy Wedding Anniversary and I pray for many more years to share and care for one another and our kids.. I love you ...
