If there’s one thing we’ve learned throughout our relationship, it’s that God’s timing is perfect. We went to the same university, had tons of mutual friends, and I was even a queen for his social club, yet we never once crossed paths in college. Even after college we should’ve met so many times, with Ryan living in Searcy (my hometown) and me living in Little Rock and hanging out with many of Ryan’s friends on a regular basis, but it wasn’t until 3 years after we graduated that we FINALLY met. He asked me on a date, I went, and we both agree it was better than either of us could have anticipated. We sat at the restaurant and just talked for over 2 hours about all kinds of things. So date #1 turned into date #2, and after that second date I think we were both sold, and the rest is history! We both like to wonder about what life would be like if we had met in college, but God had a plan the whole time. He was busy preparing both of us for each other through different experiences and life lessons so that we would be ready when he finally brought us together. We are perfect compliments to each other and give all thanks to God for listening to our prayers and allowing us to live this life together!
