Adam and I met via the Bumble dating app in early March of 2023. We quickly scheduled a date and during that first date we talked, we laughed like we had known each other our whole lives, I even got him to try drunken muscles for the first time! While walking around downtown Deland after dinner Adam told me I was a prize and should always be treated like one.

After a few months of going on dates and spending time together he asked me to make things official. He soon won the hearts of my friends and family. They couldn't stop saying "It's like he was made for you Jamie" He especially and most importantly won the hearts of my three children who quickly wanted to be around him all the time.

Once I met Adam's parents it was easy to see how I landed such an amazing guy. They were beautiful examples of what marriage and family mean. Adam's sister Alyssa and her husband Logan were so warm and inviting. It was so nice to see their love for one another and being welcomed in with open arms made me feel so blessed all around.

Adam grew very fond of my parents. He could tell they raised three very strong and independent women. He admired my Moms dedication to her grandkids and my Step Dads never ending support. Adam made coming into a family with 7 children, strong personalities and a bit of chaos seem easy. He appreciated what we all contributed to his life and genuinely loves everyone in my family.

It wasn't long before ALL the kids started asking Adam "When are you going to marry our Mom/Aunt?"

On March 14th, 2025 a little over 2 years after our first date we went on a trip to Disney. Adam took me on to the balcony of our room at the resort we were staying at and asked me if I remembered him telling me I was a prize. I said "yes.." He told me I am his very best friend, that he loved me and the kids so much and he wants to treat me like a prize for the rest of my life.

He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him!

Now... HERE WE ARE!

I am a better person because of Adam. He helps me and he will tell you that I help him to. I cant wait to marry the absolute best human being on this planet!

I may be a "prize" to Adam but if you ask me, I'm the one who truly hit the jackpot.
