Dear God,

I was walking towards the Pony Home. The last time I was here, it was snowing abundantly and I could barely see the road. And, it was a sad moment, because I was alone, I had left my Miss Freckles in that sordid school. So I was thinking about her going there and I talked about her with Miss Pony and Sister Maria. I saw the Pony Hill covered with snow… Now I was going there, a new man, a free man and the sun was shining the weather was beautiful, but I have to admit even if it was raining cats and dogs or fire from the sky, it still would've been the most beautiful day in the world for me, because I was going to her, to my Freckles, to my future… I arrived at the Pony Home, what I saw was a big table outside with food and drinks and people sitting all around it. If the other were surprise to see me, I'm never going to forget the expression on my Freckles' face. I was smiling, every body was looking at me, but I was looking at her. She stood up surprised. She asked me what I was doing there. I told her that I was invited by Albert to her little party. She looked at Albert who winked at her. Being the good girl that she was she said she just read in the paper that I was with Susanna… I told her not to believe everything the paper says, since I was there to be with her. She asked about Susanna, I told her she let me go to come to her… Her face instantly lit up and she jumped to my neck laughing and crying at the same time. I held her tight against me, turn around with holding her in my arms, laughing with tears in my eyes. When we stopped, we instinctively looked for each other's lips and I finally gave her that long awaited second kiss on the lips. After all that time, kissing Candy was like finally drinking water after walking in the desert for days in the sun, like my life depended on it. I needed that, it was vital… How did I manage to live without her I wonder…my spirit was dead and I was reviving it by being with her and that kiss was like CPR to me… She blushed like a bride when we were done but she was as happy as I am. So I told her I wanted to ask for her hand in marriage to her adoptive father, the great uncle William and to my big surprise, Albert said it was him! I was shocked and everybody laughed at my surprised face and they clapped their hand cheering and laughing. I was stuck to Candy like glue, as I'm writing these words, she right here beside me smiling at me and I'm the happiest man on this earth. During the evening when her friends went left, I was still there with her at the Pony Home when all the kids were sleeping; we stayed in the sitting room in front of the fireplace until morning. It was like I was afraid of letting her out of my sight, I was afraid she was going to disappear again like in my dreams. She had the same feeling because she was letting me out of her sight either.

A few weeks later I married my Freckles in a little ceremony, she doesn't like big lavish parties. But it didn't matter, what was important is that I was married to the only woman I've ever loved; the woman I'd loved from the moment I saw her. Albert gave her away and I cried when I said my vows to her, like she cried when she said her vows to me. When I kissed her for the first time as my wife, it was everything I hoped for and so much more. Thank you Big guy, I put my faith in you and you didn't disappoint me, I knew you were going to make things right. I should've had more faith in you, but I'm only human and losing my Freckles drove me crazy, literally! Thank you God from the bottom of my heart, you gave me back the one thing I wanted the most in this world, the one person who is going to make my like on this earth heaven, my Candy. You more than anybody know what she means to me, with her in my life, everything is going to be fine, from now on.

My biggest dream had just come true. I bought a house in the New York suburbs area, so we can raise our family. Being with my beloved, it's the most wonderful think in the world. We are so happy together, even when we argue, we're happy. I still call her the nicknames, and she likes it now, she doesn't get upset anymore, she missed those nicknames coming from my mouth.

We're expecting our first child, this is another wonderful thing, a miracle she and I created and it's all thanks to you God.

This journal helped me in my difficult time; I wrote in here all my sad and painful stuff. Now, I have my Freckles to confide on, she always listens to me. I could be in a bad mood at the theatre for whatever reason, all I have to do is come back home and see her face and I feel better…no matter what the problem…So Dear God, I won't be writing you in this journal again. I will talk to you directly from now on. I wrote my most darkest moment in this journal and I wanted to forget them at first, but I won't … Those dark memories only make me realise how lucky I am now. I can't forget them, pain is part of life, it's part of who we are, and it made me what I am now and it makes me appreciate what I have now with my Freckles.

So Dear God, thank you for everything, for all your blessings.

The End
