The Growing Thing's: December 2012

We are happy to announce Jonathan Brian Thing

Doctor said everything looks good.

How we met

Our story starts in August of 2006.

My Best Friend Courtney wanted to go to Institute one night.

when we arrived at the LDS Glen Burnie Building two guys were standing in the foyer. One of them greeted Courtney with a friendly "Hello" then the two guys introduced themself. Tarik (really Tall and skinny) and Brian ( dark hair and quiet) while we waited for the institute teacher to show up, the four of us headed into the gym and played around shooting hoops.

At the time Brian was going to school at Anne Arundel Community College and i worked at that College in the Cafeteria. It wasn't until after i had missed two weeks of institute that Brian came to the Cafeteria to ask if i was coming to institute this week. I don't know why, but after that day i never forgot to go again.

A few weeks later, before returning home from institute, i asked Brian for his Number. I was having fun hanging out with him and Tarik before and after institute and I wanted to Talk to him more.

It wasn't till late October that Brian and I went on our first date (he asked me). We started off with a movie at a nearby theater. Afterward we had dinner at a place called Double-T. Following that, we went to his house and we played video games. Brian was amazed that I was pretty good at it.

So, our interest for each other bloomed and we kept finding more things to love about each other. When things looked too good to be true, a cliff hanger dropped in front of us. I and my family Had to move to Missouri (around the same time Brian was to leave for an LDS Mission).

On December 6th Brian confessed his Love to me. He'd been working up the courage to tell me, not knowing if telling me would scare me away or keep me close...
