~Jason Christopher Harris ~

Only 29 days before my own birth, Jason Christopher was born. This cute little baby boy I'm sure was the definition of adorable. *smiles* Who would ever have thought that this little boy would grow up to be the man to be the keeper of my heart? If there ever was a gift from God, he would be mine.
 

The Beginnings of a Great Friendship...
 

A long time ago, (well ok maybe last September) I ventured on into a chatroom I used to frequent earlier in the year. As always after a long time away there were new faces and games to learn and live with. *smiles* One of the biggest things I remember was this guy who called himself The_Hop_Goblin and what he did just made me laugh. He had a little stuffed animal Cow named Bessie (I believe), and he would take the cow and shove it at people saying "KISS DA COW!!" lol  You had to be there. :o)

Maybe it was spurred on by needing a shoulder to cry on..a friend. But I recall turning to him, letting my frustrations go to someone who would be there to listen and lend advice or just be there for me. He did just that, and then some. He was there for me when I couldn't talk to anyone else. And he never complained about it. *smiles softly* He's not that type of person.

Soon after we started talking more and more... became ICQ buds on top of that. Now, Role-playing was a big thing in the room we went to. And it had died down. Jas and I, now we wanted to keep one goin... a real good game that wasn't fake "Sire-me-Cyber" crap.
So off we went to create 'Edgeport Square'. I remember sneaking online at 1 or 2 in the morning to meet him just to play this game. I loved what we had created. I started loving just seeing him around. *laughs* As a little more time went on we'd greet each other as soon as we saw each other on ICQ with a hearty "HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!"
or
"TTTTTTTTTTTTTRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!"
*giggles*

I say it was about then that I had started picturing him more than just a good friend. Soon he was my best friend.  And not far after that he was something more, yet it wasn't ready to be called something that would invite committment or exposure of total heart.
But it was growing.
And we both could feel it.

We let this floating on each other go on for a little while.. it was like we were seeing each other and expected the other not to see anyone else, but wasn't voiced.

Then after long talks and long moments together..we smiled and let it be known that we were an item.
And we couldn't have been happier, or so we thought.

Are You That Somebody?....

If I looked back on how much we have grown together, I would never have predicted we'd go this far. It just seemed an impossibility that I would find someone out there who could or even would love me the way I wanted..needed..wished to be loved.
I'd have denied it from the very start if someone would have told me that I'd end up giving my heart totally to a man that would do the same for me.
I would have laughed in disbelief.
And I would have looked the fool.
As now here I sit, smiling like no tomorrow, thinking about my beloved Baby Love, thinking on how much I love him, need him, want him in my life. Knowing he's out there thinking the same.

Sometimes I cry myself to sleep from being so happy. I never used to do that. *sighs* How can I explain  it? It feels like this overwhelming happiness, a glow, that's core is in my chest and radiates out to fill my whole self with this light..this inner peace and joy. Contentment. Love.
I smile wherever I go.
If my heart could leap it'd be gold medalist.

I'm just that happy.
And Jason is the very reason.
He is my Love.
He is my One.

"I Love You Baby."
