Laura

Laura

Laura is just your typical nice Minnesota girl, who grew up with the little dream of having a family of her own someday. Along the way, she has studied in Spain, taught English and literature, and made about a hundred homemade cards. She now braves the Minnesota winter each year because she is madly in love with her Minnesotan husband and wants to raise her baby Mary (and the siblings to come) near family. She is part of I Believe in Love because when you truly fall in love, and love well, you and your partner make each other shine.
