Four years and counting

Every Tuesday, it's a race to see who says first : "Good Morning, It's Tuesday!" So what does that mean? Well, I'm glad you asked. To begin with, Rick and I met under the emotional circumstances of his father's passing We fell madly in love from our first date, and were inseparable from then on. There was the normal chaos of a family dealing with the death and details of Rick's dad, and we seemed to be floating in a cloud of surreal emotions. The funeral was scheduled for a Monday... and Rick's lingering question was "Would Kristen be around on Tuesday, or did I just dream it all?" As you can guess, Tuesday came with the sun rising anew. The first words out of our mouth that day when we saw each other was
"Good Morning, It's Tuesday!"
And every Tuesday since the first one - Tuesday October 28, 2002 - those simple words are spoken, reminding us of our beginnings.
And the rest, as they say, is history.
