I don't know if I ever told anyone but Jesse this, but when we first met in NYC on a temple trip, we were in the same group and walked around the city together. After dinner he offered to carry my gigantic slice of cheesecake and jokingly I refused (fearing he might eat it), but let him carry it but slyly put my arm in his to "keep an eye on the cheesecake." ;) The moment I touched him, could smell him (he smelled great), I KNEW that I was falling in love with him. It was magical, literally. I had never felt so comfortable with a man before. A couple weeks later we tied for the tacky sweater contest and "won" a date with each other (he told me he was going to ask me out anyway.) Two weeks later we had our first date. We kissed. Two weeks later he told me he loved me, and I told him I love him. The next week he asked me (in a very round about way) to marry him. Five months later we were sealed for "time and all eternity" in the Washington, D.C. temple. We are each others best friend, we've cried on each others shoulders, we've laughed at each others silly jokes, we've traveled thousands of miles together, we confide in each other, we trust each other, and in 3 months, we'll have our first child together! Marriage is the greatest thing in the world!! Happy two years my sweetest Jesse! I love you more than I can ever say!

This sounds like another...Once upon a time. You should totally write it like you did for Dad and me.
