Marrying your high school sweetheart
As I get closer and closer to spending the rest of my life with Simon, I have been thinking about how unique and a little crazy it is to marry my high school sweetheart. First of all he knows everything about me and while I try to follow up and know everything about him also I feel like I still have a long way to go. He might say the same thing in reverse but I am not sure its true. I think maybe I will always feel this way about getting to know Simon. But I think at the same time its more of a challenge than a setback. Getting to know someone especially someone you love dearly I think is like going to an Art museum like El Prado there is so much art that there is no way you can see it all in one trip(although I tried very hard)you have to keep going back and discovering something new each time, its probably the most exciting and challenging adventure I will ever be on. Simon and I have had all our firsts together...we went on our first date(I had a broken foot and he was very smooth and said it would be good if I held his hand so I wouldn't hurt myself, in reality I was more like leaning on top of him the entire night) our first kiss, which happened in the basement of my house and ended in hysterical laughter. Simon and I have tried to do things like share a school parking pass(bad idea when you have two cars), we have fallen off a jetski and the key stayed in the jetski instead of coming off with me(hilarious story), and we have almost killed each other working at Okoboji and then getting through it and realizing how we can work together better. We have seen each other at our best and worst, we have cheered each other on and given each other advice, and through it all we have always love each other. I am so incredibly excited to get married to Simon and I know things may get harder and we will have to work through more things. But I know without a doubt I am marrying my best friend I have ever had and that I am more in love with him than I was when I first fell in love with him seven years ago.
