*Excerpt*
We were destined to marry each other. Our love story is a testimony to follow your hearts and listen to God’s plan for your life. We trust and support each other to achieve goals. We have also had disappointments and more than a handful of heated and hurtful arguments. We had our share of issues, such as having narcolepsy, high blood pressure, gaining and losing weight, sinus infections, allergies, injuries, surgeries, and a mini stroke. We use social media mainly for business purposes, and our family business stays in our home. We embrace the moments we share, and we continue to seek peace and patience. We know and embrace who we are, and we are comfortable with it. We understand our roles, what we need to take care of, and take the necessary steps to move forward. We know the most important parts in our marriage are trust, love, communication, and patience.
