Update : A Happy Ending for Romeo and Juliet

January 23, 2008

Update: Luckily there is a good update for these two. Hannah McConnell,13, called her grandmother telling her where they were and that Gage Petherbridge, 15, and herself would be coming over. OBVIOUSLY the grandmother alerted authorities who caught the two lovebirds on their trek.

This morning Hannah McConnell’s mother, Julie McConnell, told “Good Morning America” that she can keep her boyfriend as long as she maintains her grades and takes her medication.  Lucky girl! My parents would have : A. killed me  B. killed the boy or C. not allow me to leave the household…ever!

I wanna be with her,” Petherbridge said. “I would say we are in love.”

This brings a tear to my eyes….not. Gag.

I’m just happy that the two are in safe hands now and this story has a happy ending and a happy closure!
