The day we met This is the story we love to tell! Shami was coming into town to visit his mother and after picking him up from the airport the next day, Sharada and I had plans for a ladies dinner night. As a bonus note to this story, Shami and I briefly got to speak on the phone that evening too. The next day comes and we go to pick Shami up from the airport and somewhere in the drive he invited himself to join along for dinner that’s where this story begins. When we arrived at the restaurant, Shami decided to take the seat next to me at the table. I didn’t think anything of it because he was Sharada’s son… but God is good to us and always mysteriously working because from that moment on, Shami made sure to make himself unforgettable. We connected and we both knew it. The next night, we both went to the Youth Friday night service and met again. After the service was over, we couldn’t keep away and spent the whole night talking and really getting to know one another… and from then on, it was history.
