Our story began in October 2020, thanks to a very special introduction. It was Jaliesa’s mom and Ralph's dear cousin, our heavenly angel Vernicia, who brilliantly played matchmakers. They both had a feeling we'd be perfect together, and as it turns out, they were absolutely right! Ralph's first thoughtful gesture came on Jaliesa’s birthday in October 2020, with a lovely bottle of champagne sent to the house. The Spark Ignites: We had our very first date in November 2020, and it was clear from that evening that something truly special was brewing. Our conversation flowed effortlessly, and from that day forward, we've been inseparable. We quickly bonded over our shared love for family. Our Growing Family: Our love story grew even more beautiful with the arrival of our precious baby in July 2022. Becoming parents has deepened our bond and brought an incredible new dimension of joy and purpose to our lives. Every day with our little one is a reminder of the amazing family we're building together.
