Christian and I met in 2021 at the school we both attended in North Carolina. My mom bumped my shoulder to look at the cute guy across the room. What a wing woman!

When I looked over to see him, he looked at me at the same moment. He looked away quickly but I could tell he felt exactly what I felt.

We were "zapped"

God's timing meant we would just be friends, catch each- others eye during class occasionally and continuing growth in our own life and in the Lord.

In 2023 I moved to Tennessee and to my excitement, Christian was coming to my church every week.. an hour and a half away from him.

No doubt it is an incredible church but I liked to think he came for me :)

We bonded over how we have experienced the brilliant love of God, his love for us and our love for life, adventure and kindness. His heart is steadfast, deep and captivated by Jesus.

It wasn't too long after that we had a day to get to know each other in a forest by my house and I accidently mentioned that our dads would have a connection to tennis when they meet.

"Are our dads meeting?" - Christian

*blushing uncontrollably* - Megan

"Well, now that you say that, I can't wait to meet your brothers"

From that day the facetimes got longer, the conversations got sweeter and we began our love story that will last a lifetime, and beyond.

Our story will never stop but it keeps beginning. We have the same excitement for life and for loving each other well. June 9th couldn't come soon enough but we are soaking up each and every day.
