Most people don’t step onto a nightclub dance floor expecting to meet “the one”, but that’s exactly what happened to Tamiko & Glasper. In 2007, she first laid eyes on Glasper Kirkland II at the club, Memphis Nites in Memphis, TN. We chatted away for the night and that was the start of an amazing relationship. Fast forward almost six years, we’re in our first house together, 3 years after, started a business T & K Lawn Service and things are perfect. Kirk, as I affectionately call him, has been my rock when I was at my worst and heartbroken with the loss of a child. He has been there with the joy of grandchildren being born. I don’t want the heavens or the shooting stars. I don’t want the gemstones or gold. I have those things already. I want a steady hand to hold. A kind soul to care. I want to fall asleep, and wake, knowing my heart is safe. I want to love, and be loved. And that is what we have. Meka, as I affectionately call her, is my biggest cheerleader. When I look at her, I see a lot of things; my best friend, my girlfriend, my secret holder, my future! I know what true love is, and it is because of her. I like her with my last name…and yes, she can have it! We can’t wait to start our future together as Mr. & Mrs. Kirkland.
