two years later....

Two years ago today I was apart of the sweetest and quite daring meet cute of my life.

I started my day as normal as could be on a cold January morning in Nashville, Tn

and head to the Starbucks I was working at that morning.

I went along with my tasks greeting customers and taking orders.

I never would've thought he would walk through those doors but the beauty of it was that I had no clue who he was.

He and his friend order their drinks as they did each day before this one.

But after they went and sat down I couldn't help but think how handsome the young man was.

Then I felt a voice say, go tell him. I argued until the thought,

"I'll probably never see him again do what does it matter" pushes me to just go for it.

I head out to the lobby after having a pep talk with myself.

I see him sitting with his friend and they're reading their Bibles it made my heart smile.

So, after making random conversation I blurt out mid sentence,

"Well yeah I just wanted to let you know you're incredibly handsome and I'll probably never see you again. So.."

I'm so glad I was wrong... I did see him again 8months later after attending Eastgate.

Then 10 months after that started my journey with him.

I didn't know it then but the young man that walked in that day would become my best friend.

My sweet encourager. My rescuer. My boyfriend. The one that would change my life.

God writes the greatest love stories.

I am so thankful that He knew what I didn't and He saw my future before I did

and gave me the greatest gift I never saw coming.

Jhason Smith, I love you and I am so thankful for that day and for you. <3
