Scott and I are incredibly grateful for my parents' unwavering support and love. From helping with practical matters like car troubles, taxes, to adding warmth to our new home through decorations and thoughtful gifts, they've always been there for us. Molly, inspired and encouraged by them, has become a great engineer and is forever grateful for their guidance. Personally, I've learned a lot from them, and can now say with full belief - your parents truly know best. As we embark on starting our own business, we recognize that we owe them a lot. Our aspiration is not to only build a successful venture but also be able to take care of them in return. Whether celebrating thanksgiving in Michigan or looking forward to having them in Charleston, cherish these times. We hope that one day, they'll retire close to us in South Carolina. Our hearts are full of love and gratitude for my amazing parents.

Molly and I are profoundly grateful to have four loving parents. Scott's parents have consistently showered him with love and unwavering support, always serving as his greatest advocates. Their steadfast presence has seen him through thick and thin, encouraging him to dream big. This support played a pivotal role when Scott moved to America, where fate led him to meet Molly. Since the inception of our relationship, they have showered us with love, encouragement, and practical help – from constructing furniture to assisting in navigating the intricate realms of planning and organizing, be it for weddings, travels, or the countless hours dedicated to tedious paperwork... As we navigate our journey together, we are confident in the unwavering support of our parents. While currently limited to seeing them twice a year, we aspire to be more present and supportive in their lives, reciprocating the immense love they've bestowed upon us. Thank you, Mum and Dad.
