A love story

It’s been a month since the whole world celebrated the Valentines day. Anyway, we shouldn’t celebrate it just for a day, I mean, everyday, we should give love, spread the love and be in live. Why am I telling this?? It’s all because of that National Geographic Magazine article I’ve read recently. Though it’s a June 2003 issue, it’s still worth reading.

Below is the article:

…With a Honey of a Pair

When Rachel Anderson, then 13, was featured in a May 1993 Geographic article about her family’s life as traveling beekeepers, a friend teased her: “Some guy will read this, come to work with you, and fall in love with you.” Meanwhile in Oklahoma, Melody Drake saw the story and pointed it out to her 13-year0old son, Richard, who was interested in bees and have been begging for a hive in his own. “Look,” she told him, “these beekeepers have a daughter your age.”

Sure enough, Rachel and Richard both ended up at Weimar College, a tiny Seventh-day Adventist school in California. She mentioned that she was a beekeeper’s daughter-“it’s a great conversation starter,” she says. “Later his mother said to him, ‘I bet she’s that girl form the National Geographic article.’ ” Richard and Rachel began dating, and he eventually did work for her father, tending the family bees. Things took their natural course, and the two were married on April 8, 2001.

Hi, You don't know me... But I'm the Rachel in the Honey of a Pair. My mother-in-law sent me this link to your article. I'm glad my story was inspiring. My husband and I are still happily married ( 6 1/2 years now). We have a 17 month old and another baby due in June:-)
