Don Henley's Boys of Summer

Every time I hear it, I am immediately taken back to February of 2006... driving with my future husband down winding canyon roads in Malibu - the windows down and the night air rushing in, as he sang at the top of his lungs. Looking at him, so happy and carefree, that last little wall protecting my heart crumbled away. I suddenly knew that no matter what might happen in the future, I needed this man beside me for the rest of my life. My heart was his forever, for better or worse. I've never told anyone about it, this moment that I just knew.

Something so small, a memory, a song... but no matter when I hear it, I smile.
