Today marks 18 years since I walked straight into my destiny, and my heart still remembers every detail as if it happened this morning.
On May 5th, 2008, I walked into a computer store looking for a laptop… and walked out having found my life’s greatest gift. I never get tired of telling this story because it’s the day God, fate, and grace all conspired on my behalf.
I remember seeing you, this elegant, commanding woman leading the entire store with quiet confidence and effortless beauty. You weren’t just part of the room… you were the room. I got the laptop I wanted that day, but truthfully, even if they didn’t have my specs, I would have still bought something because the CEO in red heels was my real specification.
From that moment, I found every excuse to return. Every “quick visit” became a chapter in the friendship we were building, souls tying themselves together without asking for permission. I asked you out. You made me wait two years. And by the third, we were married… and the rest has been the most beautiful history I’ve ever lived.
Happy 18th Love Anniversary to us, my love. Our relationship is officially an adult now, grown, seasoned, tested, and still choosing each other. Still choosing love. Still trusting God.
You have been kind, selfless, loving, and endlessly patient with me. If life offered me a thousand chances to choose again, I would choose you every single time, my wife, my friend, my

I promise to keep loving you with intentionality, with tenderness, and with the same awe I felt the first day I saw you commanding that store.
Thanks for reading my little love biopic… Again 😁
