Daniel- I love you




I believe that Daniel and I meeting was something more than random chance. We were actually made for each other and got a lot of help finding each other.
It was the middle of July 2004 and I was back home for the summer after a year away at Dixie. I was working and planning on going back to Dixie for one more year of a full ride scholarship. I had registered for classes, paid a deposit on an apartment and was mentally gearing up for another year of hell. I had just had the worst year of my life and even though I really liked St. George and even the college, it wasn't worth the drama I had experienced with roommates. I changed my mind one Sunday evening and went to snow. I just barely had enough time to apply for that next year and was able to still find an open apartment- where Jill had lived three years earlier.
I met Daniel almost right away, although that was the extent of it. My roommates had been friends with his roommates the year before.
It was almost two months later that we realized that Daniel had actually known my sister when he had been to Snow before his mission. That was the connection we needed to become friends. From there, there was watching conference and driving over the mountain with friends, going through Tyson and Daniels mission things, and having our FHE groups together. Our friendship quickly progressed into love and here we are today. I don't believe there was anyone else out there that could fill the gap that Daniel has filled in my life. Three years ago today we tied the knot that started our little family.

Dad noticed right away that you used the word "hell" in there. He wants you to pull over right now, get down on your knees and repent:-)
As for me, I'll just say Congrats and look what you've done together in three short years! Hope you have many, many more that are just as productive.
