My best friend Destiny and Cory's mom Missy both worked together. If any of you know either of them, they love matching people up, especially those they love. I had just called all of dating off until Teagan was 18, yes Destiny knew that ,however in true Destiny form that did not stop her. She had an agenda and she always finishes what she starts. Cory was open to dating and on the “ prowel” as I like to say. Destiny got Cory's info from his mom, and totally unsuspecting Cory received a very upfront deal from Destiny in regards to me. I like to imagine she was some type of spy from the 1900’s and slipped Cory some cash to keep her friend occupid so I wasn’t “third-wheeling” it so often. Destiny was really putting her best face forward in trying to reel Cory into asking me out for some lunch. After Cory did a little research, and by research we mean Facebook, he decided he liked what he saw and sent me a message to go out on a date. Reluctant me wanted men to stay far away, but a free lunch was on the table and I just couldn't resist. We met for a lunch date. We had such a wonderful time and as we were saying our goodbyes in the parking lot I told him we should meet up again. I know, I surprised myself and was totally smitten with this human who I had just met. Cory was just as serious in getting together again, so after that he gave Destiny her cash back,the rest is history. He made me feel like home when I was with him; I could totally be silly but also a "serious" mom and he made it all feel so easy. He makes Teagan and I laugh and he's trying to teach us chess. He has the best way of making us feel like the most important women in the room and shows Teagan daily how gentleman should always treat a lady. I am so glad that Missy and Destiny played match makers because if they hadn't I wouldn't have found my best friend and the best step-father for Teagan. We cant wait to have you all be apart of our lives from this point forward.
