7 years ago while sitting in a pizza shop with friends, I had no idea that by me asking my friend to bring in the person who dropped her off, that it would soon become the moment I met my future husband for the first time. He gazed at me like a kid in a candy store. His smile spread from ear to ear. He then asked me.. "Why are you so quiet over there?" to which I uninterestedly replied.. "I don't know." With 2 failed attempts of asking me to be his girlfriend he persisted by bringing me out to a roof top party in New York City. With the Empire State building as our back drop he asked once more "Will you be my girlfriend?" To which I responded "Yes." I was 19 and he was 21 and we had begun our lives together. I graduated college and ventured down many career paths as well as returning to school to become a Cosmetologist. Robert ventured down avenues of construction work and now is happily employed as a Project Estimator. In 2016 we welcomed our most precious gift our son named Caden. He has brought us both unmeasurable amounts of joy and happiness. We are now embarking on the next chapter of our lives in entering Marriage; a union that we cherish as gods plan to unite one man and one woman as one flesh. We are excited to be sharing this journey with our friends and family as we are grateful for each new day.
