There have been many instances when I realized Markel was the one for me but one that I would like to share was a time where he had minor outpatient surgery. An unexpected event took place which led to him having emergency surgery. The long excruciating hours of sitting in the waiting room to hear something back was like torture. As I was sitting there I was just praying to God for a positive outcome and a speedy recovery. The thought of him not waking up from surgery or just something going wrong made me realize how much I truly loved him and how I can't imagine him not being in my life. I love him dearly and I can't wait to be his wife!

I knew that Tiara was someone I want to spend my life with after a pretty bad situation that basically resulted in her coming over, me not being there....and being about 45 mins to an hour away. Another girl answered the door, and told her I wasn't there. She wasn't pleased. But the girl was actually my cousin's wife, and there was misunderstanding on my part as to the game plan for that day/evening. Anyways, a long...long conversation later, I left knowing that I was lucky to have someone like her in my life, taking a real interest in my life, and I wanted to keep that going for life.
