Yay it got approved! This is my first story so helpful comments are welcome!



This was the first picture we ever took together. Me and Angelica fell in love from the very start! Her father abandoned her and her mother when she was a baby and her mother died when she was 16, so she grew pretty tough as a defense. I actually had it pretty good growing up. My parents loved me very much and since I was their only child, spoiled me more than they should. But when I was 15, my mom and dad died in a bad car accident. I was devastated. They left me a substantial amount of money and I decided that it would be best for me to simply take care of myself. So you could say me and Angie were kindred spirits. We both knew how it felt to lose people who meant the world to us. So once we met we were inseparable. We married within months of meeting each other and used my inheritance to get a lovely apartment in the downtown area of Pleasantview.





Ha! I caught her off guard with this one! She was pretty upset and decided she would get revenge. After much discussion, we decided that we wanted to have children right away. We both missed being apart of a family. Of course, once we married, we became each other's family; but I was dying to have a little girl with Angie's sweet disposition. And she was dying to have a little boy with my zest for life. She decided that for the first few years, she would be a stay at home mom.




Well she said she would get revenge and she did when she took this shot of me in my underwear! But I didn't care. No one in the world was happier than I was at that time in my life. Neither of us attended University, but there were still so many opportunities for a young man starting off. I decided our children would DEFINITELY get the education we were unable to attain. Because honestly, had it not been for my inheritance, we would have struggled tremendously. I got a job in the intelligence career and we got to work on baby number 1!



I never wanted us to become that couple who gets so.....COMFORTABLE....that they forget the reason they got married. I wanted the spark to always stay in our marriage and I always wanted Angelica to be happy with her life with me. So we still went out on dates whenever I wasn't tired from preparing for the next promotion or just from working in general.




Soon all of our "practice" paid off and we were expecting a little bundle of joy! I could already see a little girl with fire red hair and blue eyes just like my Angie. But she wanted a little boy. "So when we do have a girl, she'll have a big brother to keep the boys at bay," Angie told me.



And Angie got her wish. Soon we were holding little Christian Taylor in our arms. We could hardly put him down! He was a very intelligent boy right from the start, and I knew he had a bright future ahead of him. He was just gorgeous. He had my eyes and hair but his smile was Angie's alone.




Angie looked as beautiful after her pregnacy as she had before.....more so actually. She now had the glow of a mother enhancing her already beautiful face.




And Christian grew like a weed! Soon he was a toddler crawling around getting into mischief! As he aged, he began to look more like me.




And soon, after more "practice", we were expecting another little bundle of joy. I still wanted a little girl that looked like Angie. But she didn't care, she was just so happy that we were extending our family. Now the apartment we lived in was nice.....but it was TOO nice. Angie wanted something a little more homey with a yard for the kids to play in. But I wasn't ready to leave the city so we found a nice duplex not too from from where we lived to move into.



How I loved little Christian. He definitely had my zest for life! He was the happiest child I had ever seen....And I couldn't have been happier being his father! He loved playing with his building blocks and I knew we would have a little scientist on our hands.



Soon Amari Jr burst into our lives. And burst he did! This picture is simply priceless! You see Angie was shaking little AJ above her head when the little tyke got a bit.....well sick.....Angie's face is hilarious in this one!





Oh yes we were happy.....more happy than any two people have a right to be....and I hoped that that happiness would continue......because you know how life can be....throwing little curve balls at you....But I knew our love could survive it.....Me and Angie and my boys.....
