Life is funny really. You don't know exactly what is around the corner and believe me when I say, this part of it was definitely not noticed or actioned on my part for a while. It took months of overthinking and anticipation before our first date actually happened. It's crazy to look back now and think "wow... was it really that hard to ask?"

From many dates and gifts, we made the most of the time we could together in amongst juggling our busy lives and that made the time we had together even more special. All relationships have their ups and downs but they also make you true to who you are and definitely made us a stronger couple. We had to navigate many curveballs including lockdowns and we still always found a way for each other.

I'm forever blessed to have had Tamar come into my life and there is not a thing I'd change about our history. She is the one I will call my wife and the one who I'm so excited to share my entire life with. Not a day goes by that I don't look back and think what if? We share so much in common and we will definitely continue to grow into this relationship everyday. I'm so thankful that God would place a woman of your character and shine in my life.
