A Funny Story About Forrest
I work at a nearby high school in the special education department. The other girls I work with are all really funny, even if their lifestyles are a little different from mine. So last week, I was able to introduce Forrest to one of these ladies. Her son was swimming at a meet at the high school where Forrest and I coach track, so we went to watch him swim after we finished up practice. We only stayed for 20 minutes, but it was all good and fun. Then the next day at work when we were all together at lunch, the lady says (in front of everyone) "Your husband is to die for! He is like God's gift to women!" And then later she says that he was the first man she's ever seen that made her want to leave her husband. Haha! I was dying laughing. This lady is in her 40's with two kids in high school. OF course, after hearing that, everyone insisted on seeing a picture of him - and they all agreed (maybe it was peer pressure?) that he is quite good looking. So when I got home that night I told Forrest all about what a heart-throb he is. He was, of course, very flattered.. but maybe a little too much so. Since then, he has insisted that I call him "GW", short for "gift to women." So maybe I made a mistake in telling him that?? For the record, I do agree that he is incredibly handsome and it made me feel good to hear that from someone else :)

I understand how you feel, except it was YOU that told me once that when you finally met Colton you were surprised he was so good looking! hahahah! I will always remember that!
Super funny Holla!!! I love his reaction and that he insists that you call him GW!! I also love that funny people like that lady live in the world to add some spice to our often mundane days :)
So funny!!!! That lady has guts!
That is a fantastic story. Congrats on making it through a Master's program. I know it's a hard process for spouses too!
