In the beginning ...

... there was one boy and one girl. They met online on a Thursday evening over a conversation about music, as lame as it sounds, and then met in person the following day at the beach. Both looking for nothing more than a casual date and a new friend, they spent the next 5 or 6 hours talking, laughing, and unbeknownst to them at the time, falling completely in love with each other. 6 months later, boy proposed to girl over the phone all the way from Hong Kong. 2 months after that, an official proposal came, along with a beautiful diamond ring. One year later, a little surprise was conceived. 5 months later, boy and girl were married in an intimate and beautiful ceremony. And 4 months later still, a beautiful little baby boy was born into this world. All of this because two years ago, one boy and one girl met and changed every plan they'd ever had to spend a life together.

I'm sure this blog will be about a myriad of life's happenings, but mainly, it's for my son. I don't always have a pen and paper handy to write down his milestones or the many things I want to say to him, but if I can somehow record these things somewhere (even in an online blog), someday he can look back and know what his early days were like. My husband and I don't lead a normal life. Nothing is ever really easy for us, and we're still waiting for that "big break." We'll get there, I know we will. But until then, we'll continue loving each other and our baby boy like crazy and working hard every day to make sure that someday, Mini M knows a good life and not the struggles we face today.
