We "accidentally" met when Klara requested to follow Noah on Instagram in February of 2023. Klara was actually looking for a Noah Clark who would be a freshman with her at William Carey that fall, but instead found Noah who was already a student at William Carey. Immediately after we followed each other on Instagram, Noah messaged Klara. We talked off and on from February until June. In June, Klara was at William Carey for a summer camp, and we started talking extensively.

We went out on our first date on July 10, 2023. We got coffee, played Mario Kart, went to the movie theater to see The Little Mermaid, and ended the night at Klara's house. We had the best time and quickly felt comfortable with each other, as if we had known each other for years.

Sadly, Klara had to leave for campmeeting for ten days. We FaceTimed multiple times per day, enduring what felt like the worst phone service ever. We could not wait to get to go on another date. When Klara got back after what seemed like way more than ten days, we began going on dates nearly every day. We officially started dating on August 1, 2023.

Since we started dating, we have had so much fun together! August brought Klara to the dorm, and September called for her birthday celebration. October gave us adventures at Red Bluff, the pumpkin patch, and the beach. November and December were filled with Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations with Klara's family. January brought us the opportunity to go on a Worship Choir trip together, and in February we celebrated our first Valentine's Day. March brought a much needed Spring Break Trip to Noah's aunt and uncle in Florida. April, however, was the best month yet.

On April 7, 2024, Noah proposed to Klara in the prayer garden on William Carey's campus, one of the first places the two of us ever went together. We cannot wait to get married in the chapel located in that very prayer garden!
