Our lady of the story was busy at work one day. She had only started the job about a month prior and was still becoming comfortable in her new position. As she was standing there, steady chopping kale for a salad, she looked up.

And she instantly saw trouble...

Trouble because they both were wounded and tired. Unsure of the depth of the waters. But his laugh and eyes lit up the room, and that's how it goes.

There is that instant connection, that zap. She knew from that moment their lives were destined to intertwine. Little did she know what a connection it would be.

They were halves of the same person and built each other up when down.

They loved and traveled.

And saved each other from despair.

They heal and grow stronger every day.

And every day, they make a promise

to love the most.

More than French toast.

with cinnamon,

and syrup

and strawberries

and whipped cream
