Every Story Has a Beginning, This is Mine

The lovely couple.

Pretty Goofy

Once upon a time there was a man from Michigan and a woman from Korea. They were rather goofy, but they had good hearts and were truly in love. Naturally, they did what all people of the world do when they fall in love, they got married.

Tropical Jeju

Wedding 

After they were married, they wondered what they should do.  They decided it would be nice to travel a bit, so they did.  They traveled to Jeju Island in South Korea for their honeymoon. They had a fantastic time.  
They also traveled around South Korea to visit the woman's family.

Next, after living in South Korea for so long, they decided it would be nice to meet the man's family. So they traveled to Michigan.

Kearney Family

And the man's family was big.
Both of his parents came from large families, so naturally there were many, many cousins and aunts and uncles to meet.  And most of them she did meet at family gatherings.

Magic Kingdom

Magic Beverages

But while in Michigan, they decided it would be nice to go somewhere warm and magical. So, they went to Florida and explored a very magical place...Epcot.  Where the adult beverages were plenty and delicious, or so they say.  Of course, they also explored a magical kingdom filled with princesses and kings and other fantastic creatures.  

A fantastic creature that we saw.

Lake Michigan

Soon after their time in Florida finished, they went back to Michigan. They decided it would be nice to travel some more and traveled around Michigan to see one of the Great Lakes.  

Sipping on some red.

They also found a great winery and enjoyed their time there too.   The time flew by quickly while they were having wonderful adventures together.  Soon enough, one year had passed since they were married.

It was their first anniversary, so they wanted to go to Paris and have a romantic time.  But, they were poor.  

Quebec, poor American's France.

So, they went to Quebec. "Meh, close enough," said the man.  There too, they had an amazing time.  They enjoyed excellent food and amazing sights.  

They certainly knew how to hold holiday cheer.

Then, their traveling slowed down.  They worked and studied hard.  The time flew by even quicker. 
 Soon, Christmas was upon them and they then found the joy of the season. It was at this moment that something truly magical happened.  But, I seem to be getting ahead of myself.  

Soooo tired.

After Christmas, and then New Year's Day, had passed the couple moved to Georgia.  Here they had new jobs and worked long hours. 

They came home late and were very tired. The woman more so than the man. 

A peculiar package

Then, one day, as they arrived at home they came across something rather peculiar.  There was a package at their front door. 

The bewildered man.

The bewildered woman.

Neither had ordered something from Amazon, so they were bewildered with what it could be.  After a short while shrugging their shoulders and making funny faces at each other, the woman decided to see what was in the package. 

So excited.

What she saw made her and the man so happy.  It was me, Eleanor Noori Kozma.  I had chosen them to be my parents and came to help fill their home with even more love. You see, I was that magical event that occurred around Christmas time.  That was when my adventure began to find my parents.

Me on my way to the lovely couple's home.
