Meeting Laeton

Lisa
Rylee and I had been a team of two for a few years, just the two of us against the world! As she got older, she started asking if I met someone with kids if she would finally get siblings.

Rylee
I remember the first time I heard who he was. I saw his name pop up on the screen in the car. I said, “Oooo, is that your boyfriend?” After a while, I forgot about it.

A while later, my mom confessed to me that she did have a boyfriend. I started asking so many questions; what’s his name? does he have kids? Finally, my mom asked if I wanted to video chat him. I enthusiastically said YES!

She went to Facebook to start the video chat and I can remember saying “Ew, he has an Android?” I really don’t remember what we talked about on the video chat, but I do remember we decided to go to Texas Roadhouse for dinner to meet.

The day we met was really fun. He made a lot of funny jokes and got me a flower. He told me to check out the voice activated soap dispensers in the Texas Roadhouse bathrooms. They were, in fact, NOT voice activated….not that I tried it or anything.

When we got home, I gave my new flower some water and set it outside to get some sun. I forgot about it and the next day it was burnt.
