As told by Cynthia Beretta herself….
We were set up by mutual friends. I, for the record, actually called him first! We first set eyes on each other at the King City baseball field. It just happens to be located right behind the King City arena, which would become the place that we would spend countless hours watching our babies play hockey years later. It was love at first sight. Our first date after the initial meeting went kind of like this - he picked me up on a warm May afternoon in his convertible Jeep. As we were driving out our lane way, he caught a sniff of our neighbours liquid manure that had just recently been spread in the fields. He said, and I quote “Wow, doesn’t that smell amazing!”, my first thought was, RUN! But alas, love is soooo blind and I fell in love, regardless of the farmer that was hidden inside my city boys façade!
My Favourite Valentine’s Day memory.
One Valentine’s Day morning a few years back, I was awaken by our 3 little bambinos and they rushed me to our daughter’s bedroom window that overlooked our pond. There, to my delightful surprise was “I LOVE YOU” spray painted in red on the snow covering the pond! And my lovely husband standing by his handiwork, hands on hips and a huge grin on his face. Best gift ever.
