Our first date was at Graze, a cozy spot for a late Friday lunch after work. Ironically, neither one of us is ever late — but that day, we both were. Tiara was caught up in a heartfelt conversation with a coworker and thought, “It’s a first date… he can wait.” Meanwhile, Michael underestimated the travel time and showed up anxiously late himself. What could have been an awkward start quickly turned into laughter and great conversation. The timing felt perfectly imperfect — a reminder that God’s plans are always better than our own. Tiara may have been skeptical at first, but Michael already knew this was something special. By the end of the afternoon, he’d said just enough to win himself a second date… and the rest is history.
