Today something happenend. Today is the start of something new...something I have never experienced before. I was asked out today by my childhood sweetheart. Tyler Lee Darnell and I have known each other approximately ten and a half years. If you do not know much about him, you should know that he is the kindest, sweetest, honest, giving, loving person I have ever known. He cares deeply about others and looks deep within others and wants to do the right thing always. Tyler is a young man who has helped me so much that I do not even know how to thank him. We grew up together going to each others houses ALL the time...we would go swimming in his pool and swimming at my house on the lake...we would play games on the play ground and be there for each other's birthdays. We were the definition of childhood romance...it was puppy love. When eighth grade hit, we sort of disconnected and didn't spend time together like we did. Throughout highschool we were still friends and would say hello occasionally. Ever since we started college we got reconnected and started hanging out ALL the time again and of course still do. And today he decided to ask me. I said yes. Tyler is unlike any other "guy" I've dated. He is a young man who respects me, listens to me, is able to relate to me, and some how knows what I need. God is using me to do great things and He is using Tyler too. There are some wonderful things in store for us. I am so happy with where life is at and I look forward to what lies ahead. So keep the faith...Peace and much love - Charity
