Our Story
In the vast digital world of Tinder, Wave and โKimberly's profiles crossed paths. Wave, an โArmy Warrant Officer stationed in Huntsville, โAlabama, had a profile filled with images of his โadventures and his love for the outdoors. โKimberly, a dedicated principal from Dallas, โTexas, had a profile that radiated her passion for โeducation and travel. Despite the geographical โdistance, a mutual right swipe led to an โimmediate connection.
Their conversations quickly evolved into deep discussions about their careers, dreams, and life philosophies. Wave was on a work trip in Aberdeen, while Kimberly was attending a conference in Baltimore. Just three days after their initial digital encounter, they decided to meet in person at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI). With about an hour between their respective flights, they spent their precious time talking and laughing, finding a natural connection.
After their magical meeting, Wave returned to Huntsville and Kimberly to Dallas, but the distance only strengthened their bond. They embraced the challenges of a long-distance relationship with determination. The COVID-19 pandemic, while challenging, brought them closer. With flights being so cheap, Kimberly began flying out to see Wave every three weeks. They spent more time together during this period than ever before, cherishing the opportunity to be together amidst the global uncertainty.
Both Wave and Kimberly had been married twice before and brought their own families into the relationship. Kimberly had three boys, while Wave had five childrenโthree boys and two girls. The blending of their families added complexity but also deepened their bond. They worked hard to build relationships with each other's children, creating a loving and supportive environment for all eight kids.
They also taught each other new skills and perspectives. Wave, with his military background, taught Kimberly how to shoot, fly airplanes, and enjoy photography, sharing his love for adventure and precision. Kimberly, with her nurturing and empathetic nature, taught Wave the importance of listening and the value of education, helping him to understand the significance of patience, communication, and lifelong learning.
After navigating long-distance for some time, Wave took an assignment in Fayetteville, North Carolina, moving further away from Kimberly in Dallas. The increased distance was tough, but it reaffirmed their commitment to each other. Around the three-year mark, Kimberly was confident in their relationship and ready to take the forever step, while Wave needed a bit more time to reach the same conclusion. Kimberly's unwavering belief in their love and deep connection eventually led Wave to propose to Kimberly, solidifying their commitment to each other.
They decided to get married, knowing they would still need to navigate the challenges of a long-distance relationship for a few more years. Kimberly would remain in Texas to fulfill her commitments as a principal, while Wave continued his military duties in North Carolina. Despite the physical distance, their commitment to each other never wavered. They made plans for frequent visits and cherished every moment they spent together.
Wave and Kimberly's love story is a testament to the power of connection and commitment. From a simple swipe on Tinder to building a life together, their journey is filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support. Their story continues to inspire those around them, reminding us all that true love knows no boundaries. Despite the miles that will still separate them for a few more years, their bond remains unbreakable, a testament to their enduring love and resilience.

Some people
forget
that
love is
tucking you in
and
kissing you
โGood nightโ
no matter
how young
or old
you are
Some people
donโt
remember that
love is
listening
and laughing
and asking
questions
no
matter
what
your age
Few
recognize
that
love
is
committment,
responsibility
no fun
at
all
unless
Love
is
You
and
me.
