Michael and I were friends for years before we became romantically involved; but when the sparks flew I knew I had found the man that I wanted to build a family with. September 25th, 2015 Michael had convinced me to take a trip, with our six month old son, to New York City to see Pope Francis. We were able to catch the Pope leaving the city. At an arm’s length away, he drove past waving! Afterwards Michael surprised me with Yankee tickets for that night; since we are huge fans! In our favorite section of the park, we got our son Nico on the Fan Marquee for “baby’s first game”! Awesome! Shortly after everyone in our section began to cheer. I looked up and saw Michael’s message to me: “Nicole, I want to spend the rest of my life with you! Love, Michael”. I turned to him as he dropped to one knee, with our son, and he proposed! Of course I said yes and as I looked up all of my relatives and father surprised us by rushing in to celebrate. Aside from the birth of our two beautiful boys, it was the best day of my life.
