We met through Elizabeth Williams. She is Echos best friend and Cainans Cousin. Echo was sitting with Liz in her room watching a cartoon, We were both young, and Cainan poked his head through her door way and said "hi Liz!" and then left. Cainan says that's when he fell in love with Echo. Love at first sight.
It was his Senior Prom. It was a beautiful day. I remember getting ready for my first prom and I was excited. I only saw Cainan as my friend at this point in my life. I had my beautiful pink dress on with matching pink shoes and a mask, because the theme was masgarade. Before prom I had ate a peanut butter an jelly sandwich. after I ate I put my make up on and did my hair. after a while I hear a knock on the door. It was Cainan coming to pick me up. He looked absolutely nervous. He had his athlectic fit suit on and a pink under shirt to match me. his hair was short and fluffy. A handsome man coming to take me to a ball. We stoped to take a photo and then we were off. When we arrived we had to wait in line for the walk in. I was so nervous that I would fall on account of the heels I was wearing, however I feel like he knew and he held me tighter so I wouldn't fall. We went into the armery where our prom was hosted, and all my friends were there with their dates. there was music and lights and a lot of glitter. Cainan pointed out the stack of shoes piled up so that I knew where to take mine off. I told him I would be fine with them on, and we made a bet, that I won, that id keep my shoes on all night. anyway, we hardly danced, rather we spent most of the night talking about space and all of the wonders about it. and then the song lego house came on. I told him I loved the song and he then offered me to dance. Whats so speacel about this is during the beging half of the song, Cainan was only my friend, but the rest of the half of the song, I was hit with a train of love. all I could think about was how i couldn't live my life with out him. it was that moment i knew he was the love of my life. i went home after prom that night and turned my radio on, just hoping to hear that song again. and even to this day, when i hear that song, it throws me back to that night and the feelings run strong through my vains. That is how we feel inlove together.
Echo moved to Illinois her junior year of high school. She had moved past the feelings of Cainan, after all he was a state away. He never stoped thinking of her though. He found her on facebook and would message her everyday. Echo was in an abusive relationship at the time and her boyfriend wouldn't allow her to talk to anyone on any kind of social media. But that didn't stop Cainan. He was even content with just seeing the "seen" underneath his messages. After time Echo had enough of her ex boyfriends rules and left him. he then talked to her old lover acrossed state and told him what happened. Cainan then proceeded to order a dozen roses acrossed state that night. Ten o'clock pm, Echo herd a nock on the door. She answered the door not knowing what was on the other side. A man stood holding a vase contained with thirteen beautiful roses. Echo then knew that Cainan WAS the man of her life. There was no question. Not even distance could keep them apart. a match made by heaven.
Now came Echos Junior prom. The theme was "Gastby". I wore a white dress and a blue feathery neckless. Cainan had his same suit but with a white undershirt and a blue tie. The night before prom Cainan came over to Illinois to see echo for spring break and prom. Cainan asked echo to show him around the town. So she did. Bushnell is a very small town so you can see the stars clearly without the musk of pollution. Echo watched the stars with him on the track field of her school. They could see every constellation out there. After a while Echo went to show Cainan the square. On the way there, a train passed and we sat and watched it go by. It was crazy loud but Cainan held Echo tight and stood in amazement admiring the work of humans with their skills of machinery. After the train passed, we finally went to the square. he stoped near the train tracks under the glow of the orange street lamp, and said "Echo Summers Sullivan," he bent down on one knee and finished with "will you make me the happiest man and do me the honor of being my wife?" Echo stood in shock! Echo was amazing with how beautiful this moment was. Of cores she said yes! Cainan slid the beautiful sapphire and demand ring on her finger. Then they kissed, their hearts complete.
Cainan and Echo had a baby. His name is Orion. He has beautiful blue eyes like his father and blond hair like his mother. He has such a sweet soul, and has a wonderful personality. Orion is now 3, and is a happy baby. He is learning so much everyday. He sings, talks, walks, runs. much of what a toddler does. Echo and Cainan are slowly piecing it together. Although it wasn't always this easy. The pregnancy was a wonderful expreance. however both Cainan and Echo were so very young. Echo only being eighteen, and Cainan only being 20. The countless conversations of adoption and abortion hurt both of them but they were only trying to do what they thought best. they both decided adoption. When it came time for little orion to come into the world, Echo gave it all she had. fourteen hours later of labor, Orion was born. and the doctor gave him skin to skin contact. Echo and Cainan both feel for the little baby that lay on her chest. they couldn't part from him, so they kept them and raised them on their own. Echo graduated High School and Cainan got a better job. Orion completes their family and pursues them to better them selfs. Echo is currently enrolled in college three semesters away from a diploma, and Cainan is moving up in the job world. Orion is their world, and Echo and Cainan are so glad to have them in their life. its built their relationship stronger. Nothing but a loving family.
Cainan, Echo, and orion are going to be united as a true family April 25th, 2018. We all have been through bumps and hills, but together for all of it. We move on stronger than ever. Marriage will make the first dream of Echo and Cainans plans come true. They have been planning this wedding for 4 years now. And they couldn't be happier. They have a wonderful church, priest, and friends to share this moment with. They are working on their credit and looking to buy a new car, and next year hopefully they can move out of their apartment and into a house! We appreciate your time and consideration. And all of your support.
