Hiatus!

Hello! I haven't been able to post, as I'm sure you have all noticed. I have received so many messages over the years about how many of you have looked forward to seeing the next couple. I have to apologize for the two things that have halted the schedule and put Just Like Me Couples on hiatus: Real life and no couples. Real life has been extremely busy in 2012 due to stress and lack of time (it seems) to get anything done. Although I've received another Just Us couple and several suggestions I don't have enough in the queue to keep another hiatus from happening. I appreciate all of you sticking with me and being patient. I am thankful to the fans who have sent in suggestions. Just know that I haven't given up on this blog and hope to get back to it soon.

Megan and Joe

Megan and Joe have been married for five years and have a sweet 2 1/2 year old daughter and an adorable little boy who is nearly 4 months old. Joe is Megan's soulmate and makes her laugh every day - he's a big teddy bear! Their daughter and son are the lights of their lives.

My Comments: I'm only adding this because I know someone will ask. Megan is Irish American and Black.
