Flash back to elementary school. Yes, seriously. That’s when we met. And amidst that 6th grade awkwardness we became fast friends. It was all pencil cases, field trips and school bus rides. The decades in front of us were nothing but a question poised by our teachers, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” But the years came and went and our friendship remained. The transition into high school was easy with a steadfast hand to hold. Sixteen couldn’t have been sweeter for us when we officially became a couple. Still wondering what we would be when we grew up, but we wanted to do it together. So, middle school turned into high school and 13 years later we’ve made a life and a love story. Through life’s biggest moments, it’s toughest battles, and beautiful adventures we’re still holding hands ready for the journey ahead.
