It all started at a baby shower in Nashville — the kind of event that didn’t seem like it would change anything. In fact, showing up almost didn’t happen. But fate has a funny way of showing up right on time. One look across the room, and a bold “dibs” was called in front of a group of friends. From that moment on, there were lingering glances, quiet smiles, and a bit of curiosity in the air. Word soon made its way over through a friend: “That guy thinks you’re really pretty.” The next morning brought an unexpected reunion. A casual breakfast with friends turned into something more when one familiar face walked through the door — early, intentional, and just a little too perfectly timed. He’d been up since 6 a.m. just to be there. With a smile and zero hesitation, the first words out of his mouth were: “So... when are we getting married?” And somehow, it didn’t feel too soon. That simple moment turned into a conversation that never really ended — and now it’s turning into forever.
