We met at Ocean Springs Middle School some time in 2006. I asked Bryan to the Sadie Hawkins dance by presenting goldfish and two black fish stating "out of all the fish in the sea, you and me are meant to be". Bryan's reply "I have to ask my mom first". Our young flame got lost while we navigated different paths through middle school, high school, and college. But who knew our flame was never fully out? In the summer of 2018, our flame was ignited once again and we have been burning bright ever since.
