I just knew...

I would be insanely HAPPY with this boy.
Ya know, after getting married and having a child, I really cherish the dating days where everything first started. The first look, first introduction, first hang out, first date, first time holding hands, first kiss and much more.

I could relive this day over and over again...one of the best days of my life!
