My sisters, How to describe my feelings. OMG. The best way to encapsulate it is that I feel free for the first time in 12 years! He drove all night from the job in Alabama and got here at 6:30 this morning. I had to leave
for work at 7:30, so we only got an hour together. It was a good hour that sped by! I made us coffee in the front room. ok, but I am getting ahead of myself.... The explicit details were ordered... lol!
At 6, Rogelio called and said he was in Decatur. I tried to direct him to my house quickly, but the streets are so weird it took a half hour to get there. He drove right past my house twice looking for a place to park. When he got
out, and walked across the yard to where I was, so many emotions poured through me. Ladies, it was like a dam of emotions I had built solid 12 years ago broke and the river flowed again. I felt like crying, laughing hystarically, and all kinds
of things all at once. I just smiled calmly and stupidly said "hi! How are you?" I was so nervous! We kinda started shaking hands then hugged, then tighter. We walked to the house where I had brewed some coffee for us.
We walked into the house and I handed him his coffee, then grabbed mine and proceeded to spill it all over myself and the floor. I was so nervous! He just looked at me with a sparkle in his eye and a smile playing at the corners of
his mouth. We talked a little, he asked if I had made the afgahn in the corner, and I showed him the glove I made. We talked a little about things we remembered, but he mostly just looked at me and smiled. He was super tired from driving
all night too. I felt so many things. So many emotions I had not allowed myself to feel for years.
The time passed to quickly, and I had to go to work. So I got up from my chair and he asked if he could hug me. I said of course, so he held me tight and asked me when I can move. I said when he wants me to. He said tomorrow!
lol! I told him I have to give my work at least two week's notice if not three. He said ok. He already has planned for himself to live with his brother and sister in law and I can live in his condo until we get married.
Then he kissed me. A long, sweet kiss. Then he just held me for a while longer.
It was getting time to leave, so we went outside and he hugged me more, and then kissed me again, and was gone. It wasn't long that we got to see each other, but it was enough. I know that when God had me let go of Rogelio 12 years ago, it was
so He could give him back at this time. I have such peace and joy that I have not felt in 12 years. It is like I am complete again. My heart finally was able to rest. I understand so many more things that God took me through in the last
years, things I had fought with and not understood. It was like God was saying, Now it is your turn to have the desires of your heart realized.
I am sorry to say I have no pictures. I will try to get some picture up as soon as I can. I could grab one from his face book when I can get online somewhere besides work.
