There was a spark from the night we met, on July 9th, 2014 in Lihu’e Kauai. Eventually, after months of dodging the “I like you” conversation, we had the talk. My parents liked him so much that they allowed us to date, but only with many many restrictions… After a few months, we were engaged and got married 15 months later. During that long engagement, we had a year of long distance which built our communication skills like crazy. We had a beautiful wedding 6-25-16, found out that August we were pregnant and moved to Maryland in September. We wanted to travel around the world and do things that you can’t easily do with a child which made it hard to accept that our path was changed. Took a bit of time to realize it was changed for the better. Our baby boy is due April 20th, and although he is not something we had planned for, he is definitely a blessing from The Father above. God has grown us through our friendship, in our relationship: pulling each other out of deep depression, and in our maturity in the past 7.5 months of being married, moving across America, and expecting a child.” -MM
