We met on an online dating app called Bumble. On this platform the girl has to message the guy first. My first words to Kevin were "Are you chapstick?" He googled the answer and replied "Because I am the balm?" While I still consider this cheating because he did not let me deliver my pickup line, I let it slide because of his dashing good looks. Oh, and his personality too.

We were always on the same page about marriage. We had ring shopped, day dreamed, talked about it all. Our connection was so strong from the beginning. It was right before Christmas and just after Hanukkah. Without knowing Hanukkah had ended the day before, we went to light the last candle on the menorah. I can't blame Kevin, I am the Jewish one. With my sister, Hillary, on facetime, I lit the candle and turned around and there Kevin was on his knee. I said yes of course and Hillary was thrilled while also informing us both it was not Hanukkah anymore.
