Kattien: After months and months of an endless array of bad online profiles and lame conversations, I happened to click on my "What If..." tab and saw this cute guy with the warmest, cutest smile and the most adorable little girl wrapped around his neck. I read his profile and actually thought it was just good enough to make me go "Why not?" and send a quick smile. Miraculously, he responded and literally from that moment on, it became obvious I was about to start the best conversation of my life! Since then it was clear God had been working in our lives for decades to bring us to the day we’d be ready to receive the best gift either one could have ever wished for. Amazingly, we went on our first date (and celebrating my birthday!) 8 days after our first phone conversation and I can say by the end of dinner, my birthday wish was to be with him for the rest of my life!
After 38 years of waiting I found the the one I was meant to spend the rest of my life with. I was getting more and more content with the idea that maybe God wanted me to stay single. I decided to try eHarmony as a last resort and I was just about to cancel my profile when out of the blue I received a "wink" all the way from Florida. As I read Kattien's profile, I felt like someone must have been playing a cruel joke on me. Her profile was perfect, but she was all the way in Florida. I wondered if and how that might work or even be possible. Over the course of the next several days we got to know each other over the phone and texting, and I fell deeper and deeper in love with her. By the time we met in person for the first time, it was all but a formality for me. This was the girl I was going to marry and spend the rest of my life with. I just hoped she felt the same way. Thankfully she did! Let's just say that since the day we first communicated, God has really revealed things in both of our minds and hearts, and He has cleared the way for us to have this incredible relationship with each other. We are both anxiously counting down the days until April 13! I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with the love of my life!
