Bestfriends 🤞🏻
Due to COVID restrictions, we couldn’t invite everyone we wanted to the proposal. But look who pulled up 👀
Michael’s parents, Mrs. and Dr. Gibson, have been such a blessing since the beginning. They’ve welcomed me with open arms and treat me like I’m one of their own ❤️
And my mom... well she’s loved Michael since they met lol there’s a first for everything. She’s definitely one of my bestfriends, I thank God everyday for her.
