Jumping In A Lake For Love

How willing are you to ride to the rescue for the woman of your dreams? Jennifer Drake Facebooks how hubby, Benjamin, didn't hesitate to react when she dropped her phone accidentally into the lake:

"I have yet to give credit to the amazing Benjamin Drake for rescuing my phone from the bottom of Lake Coeur d'Alene this weekend. While climbing onto the boat late Saturday night, the phone fell from a pocket in the diaper bag into 15 ft of pitch black water. Ben immediately stripped down (onlookers aplenty), dove in, and saved the day. And yes, after 24 hours in rice, I'm typing this from my fully functioning phone. I knew he'd come in handy someday!"

Question: How have you shown your love for someone this summer?
