I first met Hayden on the Price family front porch. I had a weird feeling at that moment, that there was something special about this guy. Little did I know, fast forward months later I would be engaged to him. It’s crazy how God works. It all started with a pen and a piece of paper. I sent Hayden a card when he was off at Basic Training, just wishing him good luck and letting him know that he was in my prayers. I never in a million years could have dreamed that the one card that I sent, would lead to where we are today. I’m so thankful that I was able to get to know Hayden’s heart through writing letters for a few months which then turned into hours of FaceTime calls. Our first date was in D.C where Hayden was starting his new career. We went up to Baltimore before we said our goodbyes and sat by the harbor. We both knew that what we had was special and that we both had never felt this way before. We both prayed for true love throughout our lives, and we knew the Lord had answered that prayer. Never in that moment sitting on the front porch did I imagine we would be where we are today. But.. here we are Praise the Lord! I remember the night I got the first card Lillie sent. Filled with excitement, I couldn’t wait to write back. Sitting in my wall locker, I wrote in my journal asking God that if she was the one, let it be known, and He made it known! Over the next few months, I waited anxiously for every letter she sent me. Due to certain circumstances, I was sent only 249 miles away (with a 250-mile radius) from my future wife and the love of my life. Over the past few months, I have had the privilege of falling in love with Lillie more and more every day. I know in Lillie I have found the one. This is just the beginning of our lifelong story!
