On the third anniversary of our first date, while on a family adventure in Alaska, David asked me to marry him in true David fashion. I had worn a ring, promising to love myself, for the last ten years and he asked me if he could replace that ring with the custom engagement ring he had made, which was absolutely stunning. Words could never describe the pure joy I felt in my heart and all I was able to do was nod as I slid the ring onto my finger.
