Ours is a story about timing. We shared the same middle and high schools, several mutual friends, and survived exactly one date to Sadie's senior year... before going completely radio silent for nearly ten years, just enough time for us to grow up separately so we could come back together. After gaining some life experience, a little wisdom, and significantly better taste, we finally reconnected as the right people for each other. Eight years of growing side-by-side later, it turns out the best things just take a little extra time.
