I Fell in Love in the Fall

The changing of the leaves, the cool crisp air, the array of colors
they all remind me of change. A beautiful change.
Five years ago in fall, my life took a turn for the better, for once, because at that time there seemed to be no looking up...
and then, out of nowhere the Lord brought Lance into my life, my knight in shining armor, my hero.
Five years ago I fell in love with my sweetheart, Lance.
In the beauty of fall Lance showed me beauty.
In the cool crisp air Lance took my breath away.
New colors and landscapes became a part of my life.
It funny how strategicly the Lord placed Lance there for me and my family when it seemed we had reached the thickest pit of darkness without my Dad.
He started just coming by, to lend a hand, or a wrench, just to talk. Even to spend time with my siblings when my mom and I were working.
The Lord used him to show us love, that the Lord was looking out for us. He is so genuine and thoughtful, it just comes naturally. I just wonder if the Lord used this situation to open my heart to love, to loving Lance the way the Lord had in mind.
