Two weeks of emailing and phoning, then four weekends together ... that is all it took ... actually, I think it took us both less time than that to realize we were made for each other. It's hard for me to believe it's only been such a short time ... I feel like we've known each other for so much longer. I don't know how I got so lucky that we found each other.
We didn't even have our first date until the weekend before last (our fourth together), lol. He took me to the local hang-out for hamburgers and a game of pool. I still think he let me win, lol. Of course, while we were there, he had to show off his prowess at darts, he he he. That wonderful man sure knows how to make me smile ... and laugh.
Last week, my darlin' P, surprised me here in Illinois and asked me to marry him. Today I am wearing his ring ... a ring that symbolizes our love and our dreams for the future. He has made me the happiest woman in the world. I don't know who or what brought us together, but I will forever be thanking the "Keeper of the Stars" for bringing this wonderful man into my life.
We spent this last weekend, our fifth weekend together, having a wonderful time with a couple that are his best friends. The laughter flowed like fine wine ... to the point I was in tears from the laughter.
We also planted tulips for the Spring ... 100 bulbs in a mixture of pink and red. He asked if I would ever plant that many bulbs again and I said I'd plant more next year, lol. They are going to be beautiful when they come up.
His home in Missouri is already beautiful, but we are going to surround his home with even more beauty. The beauty of our love will shine for everyone to see for ... "If I had a flower for every time I thought of you, I could walk in my garden forever." (Alfred Lord Tennyson)
