Cole and I met on July 4, 2023. I will never forget that day.

At the time, I was living in a different city, but this day I was home visiting friends for the fourth of July. Cole and I were in contact for a few months prior to this, but since I was in town, I decided to ask if he wanted to meet in person. Fun fact, I almost told him never mind right before he was on the way, because I was too nervous! Thankfully I didn't...

We spent the rest of the evening just talking and getting to know each other on a deeper level. I think we were both surprised that we didn't feel like we had just met. It felt like we had known each other forever and we were just catching up! I do not think either of us had expectations since we were living so far away from each other, but we were inseparable after that night!

We talked every day and we visited each other on the weekends whenever we could for 6 months until I moved back home. It was not easy, but it made us stronger and made us appreciate each other's time even more.

We have grown so much together in the last two years. We have made it a point to grow together and not apart. Cole starting a business and me trying to finish school definitely made things hard, but we have powered through it just like we have everything else.

I feel so blessed to say that I have found my person. I pray that we spend the rest of our lives supporting and encouraging each other so we can continue to grow together. Here's to forever!
