Hearing you say ‘yes’ on the top of that castle in Spain was the greatest moment of my life! I was optimistic about what the future could hold, but I could not have foreseen how we would build such a strong foundation over the past six months. Each day is better with you, and it reaffirms the fact that God placed me in your path for a reason. We’ve gone through so much … the ups, the downs, the challenges … but in the end, what shines above all else is the deep love, loyalty, respect and admiration we have for each other and that’s what will continue to carry us through into our future. I can’t wait to start our new life together full of fun and adventure! I am so fortunate to have you as my friend and will cherish you forever. You are my baby! ❤️😍💍”
