We had what most adults would call puppy love. We met for the first time in seventh grade and pretty much had every class together. Kameron was known for staying in trouble for being the class clown and with me being the shy girl it just made sense that we would like each other. So long story short, I wrote him a very decorative letter confessing my pre-teen love for him, which lead to us “dating”. We eventually broke up and only talked every now in then throughout our high school years. Then about a few months before our senior prom, Kameron surprised me by asking me to prom by writing “Will you go to prom with me? Pick yes or not no”, on the cup of my favorite Starbucks drink, so of course, I said yes, not that I really had a choice, just kidding! The night of prom really made us realize how much we still had in common and how much we missed each other and honestly the rest is history.

Kameron had this whole day planned out for months and I know this because he still to this day always finds a way to remind me. We started the day by eating breakfast together that morning and then headed to Valdosta to celebrate my birthday, (yes he proposed to me on my birthday). We went shopping which pretty much lasted all morning, with me doing all the shopping of course. Between going from store to store I notice that Kameron was more distracted and constantly stepping away to take phone calls, so we eventually ate lunch and headed back to Tifton. Kameron dropped me off at home so I could take a nap and later get ready for my birthday dinner that afternoon. When I was ready, Kameron came back to my house to pick me up, but when he got there I also notice that his family was following behind him, which was a complete surprise to me. After everyone was seated in my mom living room, Kameron confessed his love to me on one knee and finally asked me to marry him. Not being able to talk with all the crying I was doing I just nodded my head. After everyone had congratulated us, Kameron explained to me how nothing he had originally planned worked out, but at the end of the day none of that matter to me because I was just happy about now being able to say I finally get to spend the rest of my life with the love of my life.
