Ali, in her own words, from a letter she wrote to Chad…

“When we first met seven years ago, I was 18 years old and had zero responsibilities and was just beginning what it was like to be on my own. When I was with you, I felt like I was in a fairy tale, and you were my prince charming, who wore cutoff t-shirts and work boots for very occasion…You are so much more to me than my husband. You are the person who makes me okay.”
