Anthony and I were so young when we met, so carefree, and so wrapped up in each other. We were at that age when your parents warn you not to let your feelings get out of control, "he's just a boy... she's just a girl... you won't be together forever." They say that you'll love many times in your lifetimes...

17 years later... We stood the test of time. We were stronger than most. Instead of moving on to the next when things were hard, or overwhelming, we chose to work harder, add to the bonds that were holding our hearts together, until they were unbreakable.

We are finally going to have our Wedding. After all of this time... and hard work building up our lives, our family, and our hearts, we will be right in the eyes of God, and our children. We will be better, and we will always strive for greatness, which only exists in our love for each other, and family. And, that is all that matters.
