On the way home from a couple of errands today I drove through the intersection of our city at Fielder Rd. and Norwood Ln. You know the one, right? ; )
It’s in kind of an older part town with homes that have very wooded lots and I pretty much have it memorized. Not much has changed there in twelve and a half years. I know this because it is the same intersection that became like a gateway to and from Tim while we were dating.
This is the spot where I would get so excited as I turned right, knowing that in just a few short minutes I would get to see my love again. I would drive those last couple of miles full of anticipation and sheer joy as I drove closer and closer.
It is also the spot where I would have to sit and wait to turn left on my way back home and most of the time my heart would just sink, as I began to already miss him and wish we were still together.
So today, as I drove right on through with our baby sleeping in the back, knowing that I get to see my Tim every day, I was lost in the moment, simply thinking. Thinking about all the times I had passed through there wondering what our future held. And now that it’s here, I just smiled because I was so happy to be going a different direction on the same road.
Ok, enough of the mushy stuff…
Here’s a little somethin’ for your Mother’s Day. I cry tears every time I watch this. It just gets to me. Every. Time. And not in the way you may think. It’s about 2 minutes long but it is SOOOO worth it. Maybe it’s because I grew up with brothers.
That was hilarious! And I have no brothers.
Your story is so sweet. Then the video is so true…
I love that video. I’ve seen it before and think its hilarious. I could see my brothers doing something like that.
What a sweet post! I have a spot like that too. We pass it on Sundays on our way to church, and I still have residual giddiness.
That was so sweet, your love shines though so strong!
The video, ha ha, too funny! I have brothers, they arent that bad but close!

I DO know the intersection!! I just can’t get over the idea that we’re right here by each other. What a sweet story.
Too funny. I love it. I wonder if my 3 boys will do something like that when they are older.
Hapy Mother’s Day!
That was a great clip on YouTube. It could be re-enacted by my 1 and 3 year old daily. Just without as many words! 🙂
What a sweet story–I love it!
I’ve seen that video before and it’s still an absolute riot–hey at least they thought of mom 🙂
OMG, that video is too funny. I have two younger brothers so this is a familiar scene.
I was also wondering how the scrapbook pages are coming along. Can I get a sneak peek?

That video is so funny to me – I couldn’t help but laugh. I loved your story – it was so beautiful and touching – I just loved it. Have a good Mother’s Day – see you – Kellan
I saw this video, on another site. And I had to watch it here, too. It’s hilarious!
That video was HILARIOUS. I approve.
What a great video-I hadn’t seen it (bloggy friend :D)
That video is hilarious! Thanks for the giggle. =0)
I have seen that one already but damn that’s funny. I have tears streaming down my face… maybe it’s because I can see Jack and Kamden totally doing this… Jack would be the one in the dark sweater and Kamden the one wearing the tool shirt!
Thanks for the laugh, I needed it!
Hi Elaine
What a beautiful story from your dating days.
Unfortuantely, I can’t view the clip on my computer, but I will pop onto my husband’s later to check it out.
Warmest wishes
