"I had received tickets to attend general conference on April 1, 2012 morning session. I went with Kirk Robison, Daniel Cook, Russell and Lizzy Shawcroft, and Morgyn Broadhead (my date). During President Uchtdorf's talk "The Merciful Obtain Mercy" out of no where, in my line of sight, I saw this gorgeous young woman. In flashes I saw her as if she was right there in the room with me. I came to recognize that it was a girl I knew from high school named Shaleigh Hewlett. After I had recognized who it was I felt this overwhelming feeling to get in contact with her. The following Tuesday while I was in Ethics and Values class at UVU I sent her a message on Facebook letting her know if she needed anyone to talk to or hang out with I gave her my number and told her to call or text me sometime. I did so because at the time she had recently found out she was pregnant and was going through a tough time. On my way to my next class my phone went off and it was a text from her. With a huge grin on my face I continued to text her throughout the day and asked her out that night. She was busy with family but said she was free the following night. That night we grabbed some Jamba Juice and went to see This Means War. I had an amazing time!! Two weeks later on April 20, 2012 we became official and by that time I knew I loved her and that she was the one I want to spend eternity with. I love her with all my heart and I want to give her everything she wants in this life and the next."
