Isaiah Taylor

We were in school together.

I don't know that we said many words to each other in first grade.

She was very shy, but I thought she was cute.

And so we got to know each other over the next few years, went to church together, and we were really just sort of a common denominator in each other's lives.

Both of us moved all over the country many times for various reasons, but we kept running into each other at various places and reunions and these sorts of things.

And I just had a huge crush on her, you know, since forever.

So, um, but she is, uh, she is amazing.

She's, I mean, it's like ridiculous to even like try to put words to that.

Um, but I've always, I've always known I wanted to marry her.

Uh, and I did.

So that's amazing.

We did a lot of moving around.

Why did you move around so much?

You know, it was it was essentially my dad working very, very hard to find whatever work he could to provide for us.

Essentially, every move was, you know, a way to a way to keep providing for the family.

So it gave me a really interesting perspective on the United States.

I've seen a lot of different parts of the United States in the Midwest and the American West and really fell deeply in love with this country and its people.

And so that's really motivated a lot of my life.

Yes, yeah.

Yeah, we grew up, you know, quite poor and, you know, grew up in neighborhoods where, you know, our car was stolen.
