Welcome to our happily ever after, can’t wait to celebrate with you all!

Michelle and Jon's story started shortly before Michelle's daughter, Alayna, was born. Michelle posted a belly pic on Instagram and Jon messaged Michelle commenting on her "pregnancy glow". Michelle, while being away at school in Champaign, was not interested in Jon considering she was prioritizing school & being a first time mother. Jon on the other hand, was very persistent & let Michelle know that he would be patiently waiting for her. While continuing her summer semester with a new born, Jon, tried to see Michelle when she would be back at home during the weekends/summer break. Michelle, still prioritizing her daughter & her education, did not make the time of day for Jon. Jon then reminded Michelle, that "you know we're going to be together right, dumbass" Winter break came along, and Jon told Michelle he would pick her up for dinner. Michelle, brought her bestfriend, Sabrina with. After dinner, Sabrina told Michelle "I really like this guy..you guys are going to be together, watch" Jon would take Michelle on coffee dates before she would leave back to school. Later Michelle learned, Jon doesn't even drink coffee! Jon took Michelle out on an "official" date that happened to be on Valentine's Day (without Sabrina there). After dinner, Jon surprised Michelle by also getting Alayna a Valentines day present too! While graduating on time, but having a delay in her health professionals license, Jon was there through it all & Michelle finally opened her eyes to what was right in front of her! Jon & Michelle moved in & together they raised their beautiful little girl, Alayna, who is now 5! Alayna is very excited to celebrate the love that Jon & Michelle share! The 3 of them are ready to live #happpiLEIGHeverafter!
