Our First Meeting - Tiffany

I will always remember the first time I met Mom and Dad. It was the day before Father's Day in 2006, and John and I had barely started dating. All of the couples who lived in the valley went to a Temple session together as a special Father's Day gift and John and I were meeting up with everyone outside of the Temple. I was feeling a little bit nervous, but that feeling soon vanished when we met. I instantly felt welcomed into the family and Mom and Dad were so kind and sweet. Later at the restaurant, Mom was trying to get all of the kids to sign a card for Dad without him noticing. It was John's turn and Mom needed him to move over to the side so Dad wouldn't see him. Of course John wasn't paying attention so she said to me in her sweet voice, "Tiffany, why don't you stand over here, because John will go wherever you go." I loved it! I knew I was going to marry John, and this was the wonderful family I was going to be a part of!
I will be eternally grateful to you for the amazing man that you have raised! He has been such a special blessing to me all because of you.
John and Tiffany, Summer 2006
