I was working with mom and Chey at Chicagos for a couple months. Me and mom and Chey got real close. Chey accepted me and trusted me. Mom loved me and accepted my kids are her own grandchildren. Then Chey says… hey you should meet my brother Casey. She showed me pictures of him. I also looked him up and I agreed. I remember he came into the store one day and mom said that’s him. He was so cute. And he kept staring at me. Then he started appearing at mom and Stephen’s house. We talked while we were there hanging out. We would text and call each other. Then he asked me out on a real date. I said yes. It was Outback. And I was about 10-15 minutes late. (He still won’t let me live that one down) it was a great date. We talked about what we both just got out of. What we wanted in life. It was great. Then came the year of silence. We stopped talking. And texting. And I didn’t see him at mom or Chicagos anymore. Summer of 2019 comes around. And so does Casey. I went to moms one day. It was hot. I had on short shorts and belly tank top. He was there. 😍 We picked up where we left off. And never skipped a beat all summer. It was either just me and him or him, me and the kids. He officially asked me out July 16 2019. When school was about to start back up I told him that the kids and there school is priority. We won’t be doing late nights. Or week days anymore. Then he said he didn’t want us to leave. And asked us to move in. Just a few days before school started. We lived together in the Pinewood house for 4 years. And during that time we built up our family. Casey and the kids got close. Ava was 7 Ian was 5 Nessie was 4. Then in 2021 we got some news. We were expecting a baby boy. Cole Alan Wagner. October 1 2022. Alan after Casey’s dad. We stayed there till Cole was about 9-10 months old. We bought our 2nd home in 2023. Michael street. Then after Coles 1st birthday we found out we were expecting again. Kelsey Ann Wagner. June 27th 2024. Ann after my mom. And things have been going great ever since. We love our life and little family that we built.
