From their first date, Joey could tell Laura was special. Talking to her was easy and spending time with her became second nature. Plus, she is such a thoughtful, caring individual who puts her loved ones ahead of everyone and everything, and that does not go unappreciated.
“She is the best and we do not tell her that enough,” Joey mentioned.
When Joey first entered Laura’s life, it was just her and her son Hayes. She had the support of her father and brother, but the sentiment of her being a single mother at the time remained the same. And with that, she was the best, most caring mother Joey had ever met.
“She is the most thoughtful and kind parent,” he said. “She does everything for Hayes. She donates to Hayes’ school and volunteers also.”
Whether she is helping Hayes out around the house or at the school, Laura sacrifices so much for him. She loves him with all her heart, and the way she raises him is truly admirable.
Hayes himself is an academic fiend who plays baseball, and in both regards he works very hard. He is constantly putting his best foot forward, and he gets that work ethic from his mother, from whom he sees go to work every day at Humanly and put her best foot forward and live by her “art of possible” motto.
There are many other things that Hayes takes after his mother in, and he also just looks up to her. He loves her so much and sees her as a role model.
“I love how thoughtful and caring she is,” Joey said. “She wants to be with me and wants us to be a family. We have raised a wonderful son.”
From day one, Laura has meant so much to Joey, and he is super grateful that she took a chance on him. It is not always easy letting someone into your life when you are raising a young child, but Laura is one of the good ones with a lot of love and acceptance in her heart.
“She means the world to me,” Joey said. “Her and Hayes are my world.”
On top of all this, Laura is a very dedicated, passionate worker. She has worked so hard every day to become a strategic alliance manager, and she keeps setting new and greater goals to strive for. She has worked her way up through devotion and an excellent work ethic, and she does not ever give her efforts in her work a second thought.
“She will do what it takes to reach her goals,” Joey said. “She is the most optimistic and opportunistic person I know.”
Every opportunity that has come Laura’s way has come because of work ethic and goal setting. She is also a critical thinker who thinks outside the box and comes up with new and creative ideas to get the job done well, and while she may not always see it or feel it, what she does at work and beyond is truly appreciated.
Of course, both at work and in her personal life, Laura is very devoted to her people too. She loves to love, and the amount of care she has in her heart is amazing. She is always looking out for the good of others.
“She cares so much about everybody,” Joey said. “She is the best person in the world.”
Laura is the kind of person who loves spending ample time with family and friends, and her family and friends return the sentiment. They all love her so much, not only because she treats them the right way, but because she is a true joy to be around. Having her as a friend is truly a treat and an honor, and any number of Laura’s friends will tell you that.
They will also tell you that, when she is committed to something, she is fully committed. She does not do anything halfway, and she is always going to stand up for herself and her people.
“I admire how dedicated she is,” Joey said. “She fights for what is right and what she believes in.”
Joey looks up to Laura in this way and in about a thousand other ways. She brings out his good side every day, and he is thankful for that.
“She is fantastic about listening and being a rock during hard times,” Joey said. “Her eternal optimism always keeps the appreciation in this house.”
Her love of making memories does this as well. Whether they are traveling, going to concerts or Astros games, or just spending time together at home as a family, Joey and Hayes are happy because they are spending time with the most amazing fiancée and mother in the world. Laura is just as happy in a hammock on the water as she is at one of Hayes’ baseball games, and this level of devotion does not go without notice.
“She is the most amazing woman in the world and she does not get enough credit for it.” – Joey
