This Couple Who First Met In Preschool 20 Years Ago Just Got Married, And The Internet Just Can’t Handle It
Preschool crushes are seriously the cutest, but, unfortunately, they usually end after preschool. But not in this romantic story.
Laura Scheel and Matt Grodsky fell in love at first sight when they were little kiddos in preschool. One of Matt’s earliest childhood memories dates way back to preschool with Laura. “One of my very first memories is of being three years old and standing up in front of my pre-school class, declaring that I would marry her someday,” Matt wrote. But after preschool, the lovebirds lost touch up until freshman year in high school when they reconnected through a mutual friend. Laura and Matt hit it off, and within two weeks they were high school sweethearts. Now, as years have passed in their long-term relationship, Matt finally decided to “stay true to [his] preschool pledge,” and the pair got married in December 2016. It’s like a real-life fairytale love story!

In May 2015, Matt decided to pop the question at the place it all began…their preschool classroom

Share on Facebooki remember for me. my girlfriend and i were great fan of that 70's show and in one episode Eric propose Donna. but since he was a chicken he give her a chocolat bar first since he didn't want to give her the ring. i propose her the same way.
HAHAHA! I love "That 70's Show!" I still watch it to this day! That was so adorable! I also love how they tried to hide their engagement from both their parents.
Load More Replies...there are such beautiful testaments to love! I think these couple is one! they look insanely happy and i wish them all the happiness and friendship and luck that live can give because the world needs love...
The proposal picture looks like the sims 3, even the reaction. I think this is one of those stories where they stay together forever i wish we all find this someday. Jusy keep your eyes open and dont focus on sparkly places , you may find it in the most weirdest places! Good luck!
Very romantic. I'd leave a longer comment...but I .... have something in my eye.
That is so sweet! But I for one am glad I didn't end up with my pre-school crush! XD
Look at the pool picture, he's looking at her with the most beautiful heart eyes! It's so cute!
And to think that "interracial" marriage was frowned upon and outright forbidden up to very few decades ago...same will go for "gay"marriage
Love doesn't have sex, color, nationality, religion or class... if it does it's not Love
Load More Replies...Articles like this are always extremely difficult to read as soon as you leave the most wonderful man you've ever been with I'm happy for them but I'm a little heartbroken now too
Fact: people who 'can't handle' this are just plain stupid and need to quit the internet right now
How can anyone NOT love this story? This is truly the sweetest story ever! What sold me are all the photos. (wasn't sure the story was real). I absolutely love and it warms my heart to the core to see people so happy in love. Thanks for sharing this. :) <3
Love it! My wife & I met @ 8 when she turned around in church & stuck her tongue out at me. We're about to celebrate 30 yrs of marriage.
This is the most beautiful story that I have ever read. Congratulations to the happy couple!
Oh yeah, are you actually expecting sponsorship on every article? Jeezus.
