Hi hi hi! I am finally engaged and I am still stunned.

First story then pics.

It''s Valentine''s Day. I come home from work, long hard day. Tired and hungry. I come to my door and there is a card with my name on it. It''s a Valentine''s Day card that says all the mushy gushy stuff. I come in and my baby is waiting at the door in a suit and I can immediately smell the roses. I tell him I can smell roses and he takes me by my hand and leads me to our bedroom.

Quick history: Divorced with two boys and I met him 6 years ago in May when I came back to my parents'' house to get back on my feet. He lived in another state and we saw each other as often as we could. Moved from down south to DC July of 2004 and we have lived together with my boys ever since. I am 30 and so is he. My boys'' biological father has never been in the picture so my honey bunny is all they know.

Back to the proposal. I go into the bedroom and there are flowers everywhere. I mean everywhere. He bought 200 of them and bless his heart, he told me that he was working from home when actually he spent all day de-thorning these flowers and his poor fingers were cut and one thorn was stuck in his thumb.

Anywho, there are roses everywhere. And a dress and shoes and my two boys.

He gets nervous and told the boys that he loved me and would like to ask me a very important question. He reaches behind me and gets the box. I look at my boys and they are smiling and tearing. He tells me he loves me and that I mean the world to him. He asks me to marry him but before I answer, he asks the boys that he would like for them to be his sons and would they like that. They said yes, I said yes, I am crying, my boys are crying and then my honey puts the ring on my finger, kisses me and then tells me he is going to throw up now!!!!!

There is a feather in the diamond that you can''t see but just to be on the safe side, my jeweler placed it under one of the prongs. I just love this diamond ring. I compare it to everyone else''s ring that I see and I say to myself that mine is way better.

Oh what a proposal! : ) I also got teary eyed when he asked the boys if they wanted to be his sons : ) The ring is stunning! So is the tang! You look so beautiful in the picture, you look like you are glowing with joy. Congratulations on your engagement, may you all have a wonderful life together!

I wish you well,

Bridget

There have been a lot of problems with some people not being able to see some pictures that other people can see the past day or two with the server upgrade...hopefully it''ll all be back to normal today?
