How did your love story begin?

My Craigslist man, finally after bad marriages, I tried making a ad for my forever mate. He said I do to me and my two girls. We have been together for 14 years. After 2 bad marriages God finally gave me my soulmate. We live a simple happy life, we have never had a honeymoon or been on vacation but that is ok cuz I get to spend time with my best friend my love of my life. Simple things we do together is treasured time.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

When we first met, at a restaurant. I was so shy and yet I felt a spark when our eyes first met. When my husband told me that he would always take care of me and provide since I can no longer work because of my disabilities. He has had to shower me and other things when I have had some rough days. The memories of all the times he has made me feel loved and safe I will hold in my heart forever.

What would you do with $20,000?

Have a honeymoon, and fix up our backyard because that is our staycation. We love just setting talking and being together in nature watching the hummingbirds and God’s creatures.I currently feed and water and shelter feral cats . I make them warm houses for the winter months. I also have a possum too lol. I would use the money to try to built a large shelter to protect them, and to try to get them spayed or neutered. Would love to make my house easier for me to maintain it because of my health.
