Okay, I’m going to take this chance to tell my parents love-story. It is my favorite fairy tale!
My parents we’re set up on a blind date by their friends. My Dad was in his “biker” phase, big leather jacket dark glasses and to make it short my Mum nearly baked out because he looked pretty scary.
Their second date my Mum went to his apartment and he cooked dinner, then they rolled a gigantic jar of coins my Dad had around and talked till the sun came up. He sent her flowers and visited her at work.
Two weeks later my Dad proposed and 2 months after they we’re married. It will be 25 years this August for them. I have never seen a more perfect couple, they are two peas in a pod. My Dad has always said that as soon as he had that first dance with my Mum he knew she was it. They have walked through heaven and hell together, raised my sister and I and have created a beautiful life for them and their family.
I owe it to my parents and the magnitude of what they have found in each other to the fact that I have found my SO. I have lived with true-love, soul-mates, my whole life and in seeing them together I have discovered exactly what it is that I wanted in my partner, a soul-mate. The kind of deep and timeless love they found in each other.
I consider my parents two of the luckiest people in the world, and I’m so grateful to have been able to make my own life lucky through them <3
My parents kick butt!!!!
