We met years ago at the world renowned Cutters Point Coffee shop where Grace was managing like the boss she is. We had some mutual friends but never got to know each other despite being in the same social settings. A lot of time went by without us seeing each other and we both were busy living our lives. Fast forward 12 years when a wonderful friend asked me if I remembered Grace. As all of you that know Grace know she isn't someone you can forget. 'I definitely remember her!' I said. Our mutual friend told me to reach out to her and set a time for us to catch up and I wasn't about to argue.

I 'met' Grace again at CP for some coffee and short catch up but 15 minutes quickly turned into an hour and a half. She had me all sorts of nervous but I mustered up some confidence and asked her to dinner. From that point on Grace and I have shared a relationship that I can say feels like it has been years in the making. We connected right away in ways that we both needed and it was nothing short of refreshing and life giving. Grace is an incredible person who has an infectious zeal for life that I always want to be apart of. The past two years have been full of adventuring together, growing as a couple, and constantly challenging each other to be our best self. A path that neither one of us expected to be on led us to love that we always believed was there to be found.
