What's in a Name?

In the summer of 1998, I was a Junior in college in Southern California.  I wanted to make a connection and find a boyfriend, so naturally I looked to the internet (it was still fairly new then, remember?).  Even at that time, however, the web was used more for a quick hook up rather than long term commitment, if you get what I mean.  And I didn't want that (or at least not JUST that).  So I put up a post with the title "Something More..." with the hopes that the right man would see it.

Shortly thereafter, Morgan responded.

We soon learned that we were both looking for something more than one night - but a life together.  A long life that included a family, and children.

Look how thin young we were!

We took our time (we were only 21 when we met), but by 30 we knew the time was right.  It's taken another five years to get everything in line, and to go through the trials that somehow seem necessary to get where we are today.  And now we can embark on this (hopefully final) journey to complete what we started over 13 years ago and become a family.
