Daniel contacted me on SGS in August of 2005, which in my opinion was perfect timing because I was feeling like I would never meet anyone. We started to send emails and finally talk on the phone. In March of 2006 he came to visit me from Sweden. I thought he was sweet, but too much of a geek for me, so we mutually broke it off, I broke his heart :(. We didn’t talk for about a year and a half until by God’s providence He brought us back together in 2008. I had matured, and was in nursing school, and proceeded to fall in love with him. Our relationship was hard due to it being international, but we made it work. We always left an email for the other to read when they woke up and Skyped almost every day. Daniel called me daily, and back then we figured out how to text internationally. Daniel came to visit every 4 months or so and my mom and I flew to Sweden New Years of 2008. Sweden is magical in the winter :). 

In March of 2009 he proposed, and we got married in July, and moved to Sweden three days later for a year! Our 10-year anniversary is just months away and we are both blessed to have found the ones our souls love. Long distance was not easy but was so worth it in the end. We have been blessed with two beautiful children and a love for Christ and depending for each other. 

True love knows no distance!
