Our story unfolded on a warm summer evening, August 18th, 2023, at Throwbacks Grill, where we both happened to be. We met one another for the first time while playing electronic board games. We shared laughter and stories, feeling an unexpected connection that seemed to defy time. Little did we know, this moment would set the stage for a profound and enduring love.

On our first date, we took a leisurely stroll through downtown Sanford by the riverfront.  It was a time filled with shared dreams and laughter. However, it was our second date that truly etched a special place in our hearts. Isaac arrived at my door that next Sunday morning, with flowers in hand, to take me to church. As we made our way to church together, the sincerity of his actions spoke volumes. It was during this second date that Isaac not only embraced me but also had the pleasure of meeting my family, who welcomed him with open arms. The immediate warmth and connection between Isaac and my family mirrored the connection we felt with each other, weaving a beautiful tapestry of love and acceptance.

Before I know it, Isaac invited me to meet his family, and our journey continued when he flew me up to Ohio, where his family reciprocated welcoming arms, acceptance, warmth and love.

Our love story has bloomed fast, purposefully and beautifully, like a special plan that could only be designed by our Father Yawheh!  We feel so blessed to have found each other.

November 22nd, 2023, marked the day when Isaac, with steady hands and a heart full of love, proposed. It was a culmination of  our shared dreams and plans of growing together, paving the way for a future joined in love, laughter, and endless adventures.
