Journalling: We didn't have a long courtship. I was only 14 when we met. I turned 15 just a few weeks after our first date. You really just swept me off my feet from the first day we met though. You did all the little things I thought were important like opening my door and pulling out my chair when we went out to eat. I still remember our first real date though. You asked me where I'd like to go and I told you Id like to go to a movie and then get something to eat. We saw Silence of the Lambs and after the movie went out to get a burger. I know not exactly a romantic date I guess but it was perfect in my eyes. After about 2 months we had moved into your house together and we were working on getting married. Of course it was being rushed a little because I'd found out I was pregnant. It was not just me being pregnant though from the day we met it just felt right to be with you. It took us two months after I found out I was pregnant to get the judge to sign the papers for us to get married and we had the marriage performed by a notary public. So we really did not have a wedding either. You had to work and were not able to get any time off so there was no honeymoon either. So really from the beginning we have not had what you would think of as a typical relationship. It somehow worked for us though. I stayed home and prepared to have our first child and take care of you and make the house more liveable. During this time we spent nearly every second you had
off together. We went out to play pool, went to the beach and to the park alot. So while we kinda got to this point way differntly then everyone else the way we did it worked out so well for us and I wouldn't change a thing.
