Our love story started before either of us even knew each other. During a phone call with a mutual friend Jamael shared an encouraging message to kick a guy to the side and do BETTER (which I did) Fast forward a few years on Valentines Day and we would we meet again through mutual friends at Applebee's. Leaving the dinner we began to ask friends about each other...you know get the tea! We had our first date and realized that we had spoke years prior and began writing our own love story.
While at home with our newborn, Christmas tree lit, with our favorite T.V. show playing in the background Jamael came to the living room sharing that he needed to be honest with me and get something off his chest. With a straight face he began to explain how much he was interested in someone, how he loved them, and just all the great things! I'm like OMG are you serious! Right as I'm about to cry (and go off lol) he gets down on one knee and pops the question. NO camera, no extra eyes watching us, just me, him, our daughter in our home...it was PERFECT.
