What started as simple conversations slowly became a steady friendship. Over the years, we found ourselves sharing more and more of life together — conversations, prayers, encouragement, ministry, laughter, and many ordinary moments that quietly became meaningful.

A few months after meeting, we discovered that we were born on the exact same day, just a few years apart. Looking back now, that definitely feels like one of God's subtle winks.

For nearly nine years, friendship was the heart of our story. We genuinely enjoyed being around each other and never tried to force the future into something it was not yet.

Then came 2025.

Somewhere along the way — between teaching together, the conversations, the prayers, and all the "twinning" jokes — something changed.
