I am telling y’all, my husband is speaking to me through this. This is THE BEST DAY YET!
So, we are 12 days into this crazy love story and when I read our emails from this day, I got butterflies.

Subject: Did you mean to text me
Me: Jerry, did you mean to text me this morning?
Jerry: yes sugar lips
Me: Do you know what you text me?
Jerry: yes sexy lady
Me: Did you think before you text me?
Jerry: yes hot momma
Me: Jerry, stop with the pet names. I am trying to be serious…
Jerry: ok katy
Me: Jerry…
Jerry: Katy…
Me: This is a big deal. I am a little freaked out.
Jerry: babe I will be 38 in a few weeks and I know what I want in a woman…I know I want you…sweetness
Me: Jerry, what happened to not wanting anything serious? We live an hour from each other. We have 6 kids at home still. Are we moving closer to each other? Are we moving in with each other? What if your kids don’t want to live with me? What if they don’t like my kids? If I live with someone, I want to get married. I have never been married. You have already been married twice. What if you don’t want to get married again? You said you didn’t want anything serious at all!!!!
Jerry: babe…all I said was have a good day at work…
Me: Oh, so that is the only thing you text me?
Jerry: yea honey bun
Me: Oh, lol. I must have been looking at something else. I am so sorry. Anyway, how is your day?
Jerry: busy…how is your day
Me: Work has been great today, not too busy at all but steady. It helps the day go by. Do I need to do anything for you when I leave work?
Jerry: just come see me so I can kiss and hug you
Me: Well, of course, but do you need me to do anything else.
Jerry: no babe, just let me see you
Me: Ok, I am getting ready to leave work so if you need anything call me
Jerry: Ok...I love you.
Me: Jerry…why? Did you mean to text me that this morning?
Jerry: sugar…I know what I want…I want you
Me: Oh my lord, I felt like an idiot earlier rambling about marriage. You always make me feel so stupid.
Jerry: babe I love you…high strung…calm down one day at a time…you don’t have to say it back…
Me: Jerry, you have only known me for 12 days…we haven’t even slept together yet.
Jerry: I was waiting until you stop snoring
Me: Call me when you get off work, asshole.
Jerry: ok babe I love you
