Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to win your heart. Do you recall the moment your spouse or loved one walked into your life? Was it love at first sight? Did fireworks go off and Cupid's arrow find its mark?

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, the Moorpark Acorn invites you to tell us how you and your significant other met and fell in love.

Send us a note at mpvalentines@theacorn.com and in 200 words or fewer talk about the highlights of that fated occasion—how your beloved stole your heart.

Please e-mail your Valentine's "First Date" submis

sion by 2 p.m. Fri., Feb. 6 and be sure to include your first and last name and city. Tales should be ap

propriate for our family publication and may be edited.

We strive to publish everyone's memories, but it will be first come first served. Notes not in the newspaper will appear online. No more than 200 words, please.
