It's 11 19!

It's a phrase Hubby and I have been saying to each other everyday for the last 9 years.

We met under pretty sad circumstances; a mutual friend of ours' mother passed away just a few weeks after we met. November 19, 2001 was the first time we kissed each other.

Since that day, we have been inseparable. Twice a day since that first kiss, we make sure that we recognize the time of 11:19. We'll call and talk to each other or leave a voicemail or send each other a text at that time. During the times that we are together, we'll shout out "It's 11:19!" and then kiss and hug. We can get pretty corny and goober-like but that's how we keep the fun in our marriage. We'll make up songs and talk about how Baby E will be a goober just like us one day :-)

It doesn't matter where we are or what we're doing, we make time for 11 19. Add all that to us also getting engaged on this date and you can understand why today is an especially important day for us. Today, it doesn't matter what time it is, it's 11 19 ALL day!

All my love to my one and only sweetheart, husband, best friend. I look forward to millions more "It's 11:19!" as we grow old together. I love you :-)
