1. How did you and Megan meet? Megan's dad called me and asked me if I would like to meet his daughter.
2. How did you know Megan's dad? We used to work together at Frankfort Middle School, and we were in a men's Bible study group.
3. What were you doing just prior to the call? I was giving my dog, Yuki, a bath.
4. What did you know about Megan before the first date? I knew she was on her summer break from teaching university students in China and that she was a Christian.
5. What did you not know prior to the first date? I didn't realize that Megan hadn't given her parents permission to call me. I thought she saw a picture of me in a yearbook or paper and thought I was cute. :-)
6. How did you feel that Mr. Downs asked you if you would be interested in meeting his daughter? I was truly honored. I had and continue to have a great deal of respect for Fred, and I couldn't believe he thought I was good enough to go on a date with Megan.
7. What did you think when you first saw Megan? I thought Megan had a sweet smile and her eyebrows really impressed me. :-) I thought it was cool that she invited me into her parents' place and had me try some longan, a fruit found in China.
8. Where did you go on the first date? I gave Megan a few nice restaurant options, and she chose Ruth's Chris Steak House. She didn't realize it's an upscale fine dining establishment. :-) We took also took a stroll on the Canal Walk in Indianapolis.
9. What did you drive? I owned a beige 93 Chevy Silverado 1500. I considered picking up Megan in my dad's Porsche, but it's not me.
10. How was the first date? Despite being super smooth and telling Megan I wasn't into China, by the grace of God, I got a second date.
He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD. Proverbs 18:22
