Love At First Sight

Ryan and I met at the Allen School in Medford in September 2004.  I was student teaching and he was a fourth grade teacher.  I became a third teacher in January of 2005 replacing a retiring teacher.  It was then that we had our first real interaction.  Ryan left me three third grade books in my mailbox with a note on them.  I of course am in love right away...he was just doing a nice thing.  Side note I kept the note that he wrote for the next two years.  It took two years of passing each other in the hallway, driving behind one another on Rt 73 and making small talk for one of us to finally make a move.  Ryan asked me on the last day of school if I wanted to hang out.  If he only knew that I had been planning this moment for the last two years.  I of course said yes and we went to the aquarium on June 23rd.  Important date to remember.
