Right Here Waiting for You! by Richard Marx

It is mine and Brad's song.

I Married my highschool sweetheart Brad and then we moved to Northglenn, Colorado so he could attend Colorado Aerotech. When he graduated he got a job in Everett, Washington as an airplane mechanic at Tramco so we moved again and began our family. While pregnant with #2, he got a job at Boeing. I stayed home full time with the kids for 8 years until he got laid off. I then went back to work. After 2 1/2 years he got called back to work. We bought a house and then I got laid off. I went to school for a year and then I got the job I currently have and love. The kids are growing up fast and wonderful kids. Bryce is into all sports and plays the flute, Brandon loves soccer and video games and plays trumpet. Bethany is a gymnast, singer and actress and plays the clarinet. They all love to read and swim and are very smart.

I am an identical twin. Kim and I loved to try to fool people. We got tired of correcting people when they got us mixed up. People that I had never met were always saying hi to me (because they knew Kim) and because I didn't know them, I would think they were talking to someone else. We offended a lot of people not meaning to because they didn't know we were twins so eventually we just learned to answer to either Kim or Jill and we tried to talk to everyone who said anything to us. Sometimes I forgot what my name was because I had learned to answer to both names. Very confusing. I met my husband in 10th grade history class, the second day of school. We became friends and hung out together with a large group of friends. Eventually we began dating. We dated 4 1/2 years before we were married. He is the best husband anyone could ever ask for!!!
