I had to talk to her and see if the feelings I was experiencing were the same as what she had felt after meeting Dad. Because honestly, I don't think I had ever felt this way before.I knew it had been kind of bold of me to lean in and kiss him first, but I just couldn't resist. The whole evening had been so amazing, and while sitting there in his arms at the park, I really did have the overwhelming feeling that we'd been together for years. So...I did it. I leaned in and gently placed my lips to his, and it was incredible.As I pulled the car into the garage, I noticed a warm light radiating from the den window. Yes, Mom's still awake. After tiptoeing in my open-toed shoes through the dew covered grass, I opened the back door and put my things down just as Mom stuck her head into the kitchen."So...how was it?" she asked, not even bothering with any small talk."Heaven. It was absolute heaven. Mom, he's sooooo nice, and gorgeous, and it felt like we'd known each other forever. I can't even explain it." I continued to gush about my feelings as we headed back towards the den.
