Episode 44: The Love Story I Almost Missed: How Our 30-Year Marriage Began

Episode 44: The Love Story I Almost Missed: How Our 30-Year Marriage Began

In this special anniversary episode, Tom and I sit down with our daughter Kaitlyn to share the story of how we met, became friends, and eventually fell in love.

What began as a fun friendship slowly grew into something deeper. We talk about the hesitations, the timing, the role of prayer, and the surprising way our relationship came together. It is a personal episode, but it also touches on faith, identity, and the importance of being open to what God may be doing in your life.

In this episode:
  • How we met and became friends
  • Why I did not see Tom romantically at first
  • The trips and conversations that changed things
  • How prayer played a role in our story
  • What 30 years of marriage have taught us

A few takeaways:
  • Love does not always begin the way you expect
  • Friendship can be a strong foundation
  • God can help us see things differently
  • Knowing who you are matters in relationships
