Everyone knows those meet-cute stories that are hallmark movie worthy. Neither person was looking for romance, both just living their lives and learning to like who they are becoming. That is essentially the story between us. We grew up together, going to each other’s birthday parties, playing during older siblings sports games, volunteering together. But we were oblivious to each other beyond little siblings of someone we knew. Then during the start of the pandemic we babysat together and learned quickly that we worked instantly well as a team. We could not stop hanging out, even to the point of Emma facing multiple fears in one day just to spend a little more time with Justin. Our relationship has always been full of adventure and a sense of peace that has helped through several storms. Whether you know just one of us or both, we are genuinely appreciative of you and can’t wait to share in the joy of our union with you whether you can join in the day or not.
