The Most Important Ask of a Lifetime

I’ll never forget the call- Justin reached out from Chicago with a mission to propose marriage to his girlfriend. I asked him about her first. His answer? “She’s perfect,” with such love that I knew this as an event I couldn’t miss.

He wasn’t wrong, and sweet Stefanie gave an on-no-uncertain-terms yes to the most important ask in his lifetime. It looks like the date is getting near and I wanted to take a moment and celebrate this much promise, this much possibility, and an immeasurable amount of beauty they are bringing into this world as one. It’s fairy tales. It’s learning to carry each other. And, judging from how they were together, it’s a hell of a lot of fun.
