They rekindled their friendship years later during their first year of high school.
Coincidentally, Laura spotted Matt’s name in a mutual friend’s cell phone. The friend wanted to play matchmaker with the two, but Laura wasn’t sure of the idea at first.
Although the two hit it off in preschool, Laura was skeptical about how their relationship would be after all these years.
“I was hesitant to go out with him,” she said. “But he texted me and we hit it off.”
It turns out Laura had nothing to worry about as they picked up right from where they left off in preschool.
The two began dating each other exclusively within two weeks. Although they attended different high schools and ventured off to colleges in different states, they stayed together. Long distance wasn’t easy, but they made it work.
In May 2015, Matt finally fulfilled the childhood promise he made to Laura.
He brought her back to the preschool where they first met and popped the big question. Laura originally thought they were going on a celebratory picnic date to end their junior year of college.
