While on a family vacation in Myrtle Beach, Jacob and I took a quiet walk on the beach during our last evening there—just the two of us, enjoying some much-needed “us time” away from the kids. As we sat together, listening to the waves and watching the ocean, Jacob looked at me and asked, “Are you sure you want to spend forever with me?” I smiled and said, “Yes, babe.” Then, to my surprise, he stood up, got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him. Of course, I said “Yes.”
