- The first time we went on a date he was insistant that we had to go after preisthood session of conference even though I knew we would be able to just go betweeen the final saturday and the preisthood and he would be just fine but in normal him style he insisted on going after so that he could ensure that he was on time and so that he could give me all the attention that he felt I deserved. (Isn't he such a good little priesthood holder)
- He is the type of person that helps you solve problems by doing absolutely nothing but listening to you vent about it for a little while. He is always good as a listening ear and the occasional uh huh or mm hmm or okay or go on or whatever. (I just love his listening skills)
- He is great with small children. Once upon a time he came with me to a softball game that my sister was playing in and of course being the musical genius that he is he has no athletic ability at all so he simply played around with my little brother. He has this unique and sometimes difficult to describe way of running around with children. I want to say that it is comparable to the Wiggles. He also is really great around his younger siblings especially his youngest sister Christina who has downs syndrome. (How many men are there out there ladies, ones that love little kids no matter how different they are)
- He is very gentlemanly, about most things, so we went to prom in Wyoming once and it snowed like a mad dog, in APRIL. Well he was super corteous and he dropped me off at the door of course opening it and grabbing my hand so as to escort me into the dance, Cinderella like I think so, and then he opened the door for me and took my coat and all that stuff prior to even parking the car. (He treats me like the daugther of God that he and I both know I am)
- He didn't move too fast and always respected me when I said no or not today or something to that effect. Once upon a time we were at Lagoon and we were having a great time and he really really wanted to kiss me and I said no. Now do not give me a hard time yet. I had been dating him for over a year and I liked him a lot but, I was absolutely afraid that if I gave in I would be preventing him from going on a mission and I knew a long way back that I never wanted to be the reason that a boy didn't go on a mission. (PS I later found out that I was one of the driving factors about him solidifing his decision to go on a mission, gah I love him!!)
- He loved me no matter what. I was not the prettiest nor the most popular girl in school. In fact I was one of those girls who is often consodered wierd and shy or different. I was a band geek who had very few if any nameable friends. But he saw a different me, a me that nobody else saw, ever. He was my little reminder that God does love me throughout the worst part of my life and the awful hell that was high school. Brent loved me cause he saw the real me not the bullied shy hidden me but the real breathing me and he loved it. (I have always been a little bit bigger than my classmates and others and he still loved me even though he is a bean pole and like invisible if he turns sideways. GAH I love him!!)
- He has the same goals and dreams as me, with maybe a slight disagreement about the number of children we want. I want the things that I know Brent would want. Not because I cannot think for myself but because I have the same goals as Brent. We both have the goals of marrying somebody we love more than ourselves in the temple for time and all eternity, having and raising children, living a virteous life, and eventually after all that we do entering the Celestial Kingdom one day. (Together our testimonies are invincable)
- It helps that he loves music. I mean that is not the biggest thing that I love about him, but it certainly adds to his charm. I actually really love the fact that he can play hymns and other music that helps to bring the spirit in. But he does not just play piano, oh no, he also plays Clarinet, Bass Clarinet and Organ I am pretty sure.(I have always been attracted to a man that can play the piano)
- He is a worthy man of God. I mean what type of girl does not love to see the glow that surrounds those boys who are just sooo good. That is Brent, he just glows with the light of the truthfulness of the gospel. He is the greatest person that I could ever hope to be with. AND NO GRANDMA I am not settling. I love him and I know that he loves me and that is enough. Just because I am not a person who marries for the wrong reason three times. Sorry back to reality now. I love the fact that Brent just shows that he knows the truth in everything he does. (A missionary is totally that way anyway isn't he I mean they are the carriers of truth and the bearers of testimonies they are the wonderful people that are to bring about a great cause in this work. They totally carry the light of Christ with them all the time. I love my missionary.)
- He went to the Lord to find my heart. Somewhere in the scriptures, not sure where, it says that a girl should hide her heart with God and that a boy must find God to find her heart. well that is exactly what Brent has done. Brent is the greatest person in the world and he has found God and has learned how to better love me and I in return have found how to better live him from finding God. (this is very important considering that someday I am planning to make a covenant with Brent and my Heavenly Father and this would be difficult to do if I do not know God)
