Today was special. Unexpectedly, I met Melissa’s parents, Rachel and Lynn. I say unexpectedly because I drove over to a Melissa’s with the intention of just dropping off a departing gift I got for her cuz she is heading off to California for a business trip. I got her some air pods be at she said she didn’t have any and I thought that would be good to have for the trip. When I drove up, they were just pulling out of their car and I thought to myself, “oh boy, here we go. Time to meet the parents!” They are such great people. I could tell just genuinely good. I could see where Melissa gets it from. Lynn told me about Melissa and how she lost her husband, job and her MBA program opportunity all in the same week. He also mentioned how of all his children that she was the most solid of the group. He also told me how he’s felt she’s come alive since meeting and knowing me. That made me feel good. He told me about how he likes to swim and run. Melissa has told me that she got her love for running from her dad. He actually did a 50-mile bike ride with the mayor of salt lake. I asked him that he needs to do tríathlon since he’s already running and swimming. The biggest impression I got from Lynn is that he’s happy Melissa is with a good man, which is what he told me. I told him that it has gone both ways. She is a great and wonderful woman and person. She makes me better!
