We met in Mr. Vance's 3rd-grade class, both too shy to talk to each other and too wrapped up in playing with butterflies and red rover to bother. Taylor then went to a new school, and Austin moved. We hadn't talked until right after high school. Austin was geared up and ready for a mission, Taylor was still figuring out her path in life. A few more years, and we found each other again in 2024 and the rest is history.
