About 12 years ago, I was dating Charles. (What fun times!) One day he pulled out a photo album and I found an image of him (above on the right) in his Scouting uniform. When I saw that picture of him -- I knew I wanted his children. It was one of those moments when everything was pulled into view and made clear.
Sometimes you just know when something is right.
I saw that picture of Charles and I knew I was supposed to marry him!
A few weeks ago, Daniel started the Scouting program -- he put on his uniform, and I took a picture (above on the left). As I stood there with camera in hand, that photo album moment from 12 years ago flew forward into my mind. I then realized what it was that I saw in that classic picture of Charles -- it was Daniel.
You may think I am crazy and I would readily agree with you. But when I saw that picture of Charles, it was as if I could see the future . . . as if I could see our children in his face.
His childhood face was a familiar face to me.
I must say, all of these years later . . .
I am so grateful that I was prompted by a picture, to pursue our relationship!
The rest is history.
Or maybe, perhaps . . . destiny. ;-)
daniel is charles reincarnated, no question about it. it's destiny for sure!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Erin, Daniel and Charles definitely look a lot alike.It's so funny how Charles still makes a smirk like that even now.
ReplyDeleteCharles was smirking because he knew --even as a young boy scout -- that his picture would affect his destiny.
ReplyDeleteHe smirks now because I AM his destiny. ;-)
