Levi and I began talking in the summer of 2021.

The first time we met, we instantly connected. Unfortunately, not very long after we met, I left for six months to live in South Dakota. Although there were thirteen hundred miles separating us, we stayed in contact, and not very long later, he asked me to be his girlfriend. He even met my family (which was terrifying, if you know Joe Reinboldt, you know why I say that) and surprisingly, he didn’t run away!

After a few difficult months for our relationship, I came home in December of 2021 and two weeks later, Levi and I met for the second time, instantly reconnecting. He spent that Christmas with my family and I. At the time, he lived almost three hours away from me, and every Friday after he got off work, he would drive up to visit me for the weekend.

Three months later, Levi decided to re-locate to northern Virginia, only minutes away from me. We both loved being closer to each other (Levi did not love Northern Virginia traffic though, he still complains about it). We both stayed busy, a new job for him and school for me, but we spent any time we could together. I was a horse girl at the time, and every day after work, he would come watch me ride and even help me do barn chores. We made some amazing memories and quickly became inseparable.

In the fall of 2022, we discovered I was expecting. It came as a surprise to everyone, but Levi stayed by my side and supported me the entire way. His love and care for me during the pregnancy truly showed me how amazing he is.

On April 14th, 2023, Levi proposed. It was the easiest yes I’ve ever had the pleasure to say : )

At the end of May this year, our little Jebediah came into the world. My love for Levi only grew more. He is the most amazing and loving father any woman could ask for.
