*~*Steve vandalizes Kayla's apartment
May 27, 1986
Emma, in pursuit of revenge against Kim Brady, had the perfect plan to get Kimberly's baby kidnapped. One hitch: the blackmarket baby seller she wanted to employ had a day job as a pediatrician- and Kayla Brady, Kimberly's sister, worked for him. Emma hired Steve (who didnt know about Emma's plans for baby Andrew), to scare Kayla back to Salem. It worked.
*~* Steve and Kayla make Love For The First Time:
July 17, 1987
Steve was "officially" still under suspicion for Harper's shooting and hiding out at Kayla's. On a hot summer night, they were alone at last and made love on the roof of Kayla's loft as Donna Summer's "Woman in Me" played in the background.
*~* Steve and Kayla Marry:
July 22 and 25, 1988
Days of Our Lives most touching wedding ever; Kayla regained her speech (she had regained her hearing thanks to surgery not long before) and she and Steve pledged their love and commitment to each other forever.
*~*Stephanie Kay Johnson is born
February 19, 1990
Kayla was on trial for marina's murder, but for this moment in time , amidst the chaos, she and Steve bonded with
their bundle of joy. Steve wanted to name the baby after Kayla and Kayla wanted to name her after Steve- so they
compromised.
This passage (from Corinthians) was read at Steve and Kayla's second wedding (8/13/1990)
Earnestly desire the higher gifts, and I will show you a still
more excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of men and of
angels, but have not love, I am only a noisy gong or a clanging
cymbal.
If I have prophetic powers and understand all mysteries and
all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.
Love is patient, and kind.
Love is not jealous, or boastful, it is not arrogant or rude.
Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.
It does not rejoice in wrong, but rejoices in the right.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures
all things.
Love never ends.
Steve gave Kayla:
His mother's necklace (all he had left of her, at the time) for Christmas, a necklace with an anchor charm on it (as a momento of their wedding) on their honeymoon, dozens of yellow roses (their special flower), a silver rose (as a wedding gift when she married Jack)"The Rose" was one of their songs; for a complete list of songs, see my Steve and Kayla lyrics section).
*Lyric Book
Kayla gave Steve:
A cookbook inscribed with the lyrics to "The Rose" (as a Christmas gift), a pool cue (he had never received a gift "just because"), and a harmonica (showing she loved who he was, he didnt have to change).
