Our First Date
I asked Raushanah if she liked FroYo and we went on a date at Orange Leaf where we talked well past closing, getting to know each other.
He’s a truly handsome man with a heart full of kindness. Always willing to listen, always ready to help—he’s the kind of person who lifts others up just by being there. His smile is contagious, his presence comforting, and being around him is nothing short of pure joy.
From frozen yogurt to engaged, we have had a long journey. So much of it has been long distance and we have remained strong and committed to each other through every mile. That distance will become faded memories as we build a life of love and happiness together.
