Our story isn’t one with a chance encouter or anything like that. We met in what has come to be the most common way to connect with other people these days. Through an app on our iPhones. And if you’re wondering what app specifically, it was Tinder. Rich was actually still in Colorado at the time, but had plans to move back to Washington. So our first month of knowing each other was spent talking via text, phone calls, and FaceTiming. And then the day finally came that Rich would be driving back to Washington. We would finally meet each other in person. Thankfully the chemistry we had through phone translated into person. Our relationship came easily for us. We were able to have pretty serious talks early on like having a kid and marriage. That’s how we knew we were meant to be and we have been together ever since.
