Love letters.


Have you ever gotten a gift that just blew you away? For me, it was this personalized Scrabble board from my friends Lauren and Jason. They gave it to us for our wedding, which was exactly three years ago today. It's an amazing gift idea for anyone, but it was particularly touching to us because of its significance—Paul proposed to me by glueing Scrabble letters on our dog Reggie's collar:

W-I-L-L-Y-O-U-M-A-R-R-Y-M-E-?

Yes, a million times, yes.

Happy anniversary, Paulie! I love you tons.
