After randomly connecting through Facebook, Eddie asked me on a date. I agreed and if you know me, you know I almost never went on dates. I had been a single mom for over 7 years and had a right to be picky about who I brought around. So I didn't really expect this to go anywhere. I was pleasantly surprised at how well our date went and how he tolerated my fiasco with my son during dinner (nothing like being on the phone during a date). I found myself not wanting the date to end and I wasn't sure how to feel about that, but I enjoyed it. Before too long we were spending a lot of time together with our kids. Being two single full-time parents, it's not easy to date the traditional way. Our kids got along great and we officially became a couple in November. Fast forward 3 years and I still can't believe how much I love this man.
