Jaron

Jaron came into Autumns life in July. They met at a single wards softball game. They were both playing outfield. Autumn knew nothing about baseball and was filling in for someone, Jaron has a huge passion for baseball. She told me a little about him that night and a few weeks later they went on their first date to walk in the park. The more she told me the more I knew they were meant to be together. I think I knew before she did. she got her wisdom teeth out the first week of August he seen her a few days later, by now they were texting quite a bit. The more she told me the more he reminded me of Rich. There is a 8.5 year age difference between them, 7 years with Rich and I. He quotes movies like crazy, so does Rich, he worked construction, and is quite handy in fixing things.
   By the end of August I had a very confused girl. She was heading off to college in a few weeks falling in love, and a little upset because "this isnt what was supposed to happen". She had it in her mind she was going to college, date different guys, hang with her friends and kind of wait for a missionary that she liked, who still had a year left. I just had to laugh and tell her it is in God's time not her time and we never expect to fall in love. It is never convenient.
  They were and still are inseparable. It killed her when we packed her off to college. She cried and begged me not to make her go. Tuition and rent was paid. Luckily college is only 45 minutes away, hours and hours in their eyes.
By the end of August  I knew they would get married, she had a good idea, Rich still wasnt sure, at least that he was admitting. The more Jaron was around the more we liked him. We noticed a HUGE change in Autumn. Gone were the panic attacks, gone were the stomach aches, and gone was the fear of going out, especially when they went to a restaurant. It used to be almost impossible for her to go into one. By the time the fair rolled around we had tickets to Trace Adkins and he took her up close to the stage, compleatly sold out show, people packed like sardines and she was able to be in the crowd with no problem at all.

Jaron is a great guy. Rich and I both really like him a lot and he is fitting well into our family. Guess that is good to say considering he will be my son-in-law come March 14th 2014
