Most young women are usually thinking about one thing... Marriage. I, especially have been thinking about that a lot lately, and wondering if I've met my future husband yet. I don't know if I have or not, but I do know one thing... I'm looking forward to the day I do. When I was 13 I made one of the biggest mistakes of my life, I got my first "boyfriend". That put me on an endless emotional roller coaster that flew off the track and crashed to the ground. So, needless to say, as I matured and realized ho stupid dating can be when done completely wrong, I kissed dating goodbye. Until, of course, God points out that special someone and He'll just have to write the story of how it all happens. It's still hard being single... I know that may sound childish, but if you know more of my story then you'll understand where I'm coming from. I remembered from about four years ago, I started this book where I would write my future husband letters. At that age writing wasn't really a thing and it has barely three letters in it. Now that I'm older, I decided to do it again and this time I'm taking it more seriously. I want to live my life as if my future husband was watching my every move. When you think about it, it's actually quite nerve racking. You start rethinking how you interact with people and what you do with your life when no one else is around. I want to fall in love with my future husband, but more so I want to fall in love with Jesus Christ and live my life according to His Word and the plan He has for me. I want to be so focused on Christ that when the right guy does come along I will be able to hear Him say "Look, there he is. That's the one I prepared for you." I'll admit that my relationship with my Heavenly Father isn't what it should be and it's one thing I'm working on. So, I invite you to come and join my journey of how God writes my love story.

***Ranked #4 in Non-fiction - "It's a thing of beautiful nonsense to be young." ***Featured original non-fiction for Pivot TV's Secret Lives of Americans. I Drew a Monkey in a Math Book and Now I'm Married is the true story of how I met my wife Jennie and our awkward teenage romance that followed. The book began as little more than a simple blog post about what it is like being married at the age of 18 and life 10 years later. As I began to catalog more and more of our story, I realized that what I had written was far more than just a blog post. It was a full chronicle of the the year leading up to when we were married and the precious memories that serve as the genesis of our family's story. In the end, it was a poor man's gift to his wife on the morning of their tenth anniversary, dedicated to her and shared with anyone wishing to experience a true teenage romance. I Drew a Monkey in a Math Book and Now I'm Married includes our personal coming of age story between two lovers on the in the twilight of childhood and adult life. You'll see our real life twists of fate, pitfalls and triumphs together, what we learned along the way, and the anecdotes of the misadventures of youth, including, but not limited to a touch of vandalism and the rewards that come with taking risks. I hope you enjoy the first few pages of our Book of Love. Some of it is transcendental. Some of it's just really dumb.
