Will and I met while both working at OLOL Hospital in Baton Rouge. We worked two days together in a row, slipping away to talk whenever the opportunity arose. Due to our schedules not lining up, we did not work together again for a long while. I recruited ER staff members to find the 'Red-headed scribe.' After what felt like an eternity, phone numbers were exchanged, and it was clear that this was the start of something amazing.

Will had finally come home after being away on rotations, and he had told me that we were going on a nice date. I thought nothing of it, and was excited to see what was planned. We started off playing Putt Putt (which I am fantastic at), and eventually moved over to the Botanical Gardens in City Park. After roaming the all of the gardens, we decided to visit my favorite spot once more before leaving. It was a small garden, filled with purple flowers and butterflies. Will asked me, "Have I told you lately how much I love you?" I promptly replied my usual teasing response, "No. How much?" As I turned around, he was down on one knee, and the rest is history. We are so excited to celebrate the next chapter in our lives with you.
