We're getting married!

A few years ago back in 2021, my friend Mercedes had a bright idea that me and Ethan needed to meet. At the time neither of us were in a stage where we were ready for a relationship and just never ended up meeting. He had things going on in his life and I just did not want a relationship in general. It was not the right time for us yet. I went to the Stamford rodeo with Mercedes and her in-laws. The night of the Stanford rodeo I met Eli and Lilly which was just a coincidence. It never even crossed my mind that those little kids would be such a positive impact on my life in more ways then they could have ever known. It makes everyone wonder if Ethan would have went would we have instantly hit it off then and been together all this time. Fast forward to June 2022, one day while I was at clinicals Mercedes asked me if it was okay if she gave Ethan my number. I knew at this point there had to be something special about him if she was that adament about setting us up. I was in a place where I still didn't really want anything serious, but I wanted to get to know him. Once Mercedes gave him my phone number the rest was history. Since mid June last year we have not went a day without talking. It started out with texting all day every day to talking on the phone late at night and into the early morning on a daily basis. I unofficially met the kids in early July but just as aunt Sadie's friend. We decided to wait for me to meet the kids officially until we were more serious into our relationship. I officially met the kids as "daddy's girlfriend" in September. I have known since that time frame that he is my forever person and the man God had made for me.
