We met online and began talking every day, realizing we had so much in common. We both loved our career’s, our children, families, and friends. The only issue was Steph lived in Kentucky and I lived in Wisconsin. Thus the beginning of our long distance, love story started and our love began to flourish. Our blended family began to grow, and we knew we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together. Last summer, I got down on one knee and asked for Steph to take my hand in marriage and she said, “YES!”
