Both of us are from Raleigh, NC but it’s so mind blowing that in the first 23 years of our lives we had never met each other. Jordan and I met in Raleigh when I was 22 and Jordan was 23. Two of Jordan’s groomsmen actually introduced us because it was Shaq’s birthday . So I guess we are forever in debt to Shaq, Maya and Vondre, for bringing us together. I actually didn’t get to interact with Jordan much that night because it was such a busy night. About a month later while I was at my dear friend Maya’s apartment in Charlotte Jordan comes bursting in the door like “Heyyyyyy”, while also reaching in for a hug... and I kindly put my hand out to shake his hand while saying “Hi, I’m Siera nice to meet you!”. I had surprisingly forgot who Jordan was, but by the end of the day I remember asking where had he been my entire life and saying that he was my soulmate. So I like to believe that it was love at first sight. I truly loved him from the moment I saw him ( the second time). The rest is history because here we are almost 3 years later with a baby and a happy life that we have created together. I often think about that feeling that I had in my heart when I said to my friend “this man is my soul mate” and that feeling has never faded. I am so happy to be marrying the love of my life.
