"A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person." - Mignon McLaughlin-

Well, we must be on the right track.

- CHAPTER 1: I first fell in love with you while stationed at Ft. Story in the Army. As a friend; I fell in love with your free spirit, big heart, and sense of humor. We ended up becoming roommates and then we were inseparable. You brought me to NC to meet your family, and I also fell in love with them.

- CHAPTER 2: Then we got deployed to Iraq. That's when everything changed. Our feelings became so much stronger. Unsure if we both felt the same; I did what any mature soldier would do...I wrote a letter with boxes for you to check. Do you like me yes or no? The answer was yes. Well, that was the second time we fell in love with each other but much more than a friendship. I promise no more details. We came back from our deployment with unseen scars. Things changed, time passed and distance tore us apart. We were different people.

- CHAPTER 3: After years passing and being apart, we were both healing from loss and found comfort in conversations and rekindling our friendship. I invited you to visit Florida although, I don't think you thought I was serious. You came to visit anyway. Well, the rest is history. Here we are about to get married and have yet another chapter to our love story. ❤️
