We met when Paul started bringing his nephew River to my classroom at Wee Little Lambs in 2019. For the first several weeks, he never spoke a word, just handed me Riv silently, along with whatever he needed, and walked out the door. I honestly didn't know he could talk until I asked him who he was to River and told me he was River's uncle. After that, we started chatting now and then, getting to know each other a bit better. After several months of us getting to know each other a little better at the daycare, he messaged me and asked me if I wanted to go to dinner. We had our first date toward the end of October 2019, and the rest is history. I found everything in this man I always wanted and so much more. He's the man I think my grandpas would approve of, the only man I feel like my parents approve of, and I cannot wait to start the next chapter of our lives together in April 2021. God is good. He will bring you what you need at the most unexpected moment when you aren't even looking for it. He proposed in my brother's kitchen, in front of my nieces and nephew, and it was so very sweet.
