“This…is for you…”

by Heidi on June 13, 2008

I saw it coming. But that didn’t make it any less amazing as we looked at the sunset on the Georgetown canal. I said yes, no hesitation. He got down on one knee and told me he wanted to spend his life with me, that he couldn’t tell me enough how much he loved me. I laughed to keep the tears away but as I write this, I can’t tell if I’m crying out of happiness or crying because we’re watching a special on Tim Russert which is just…too sad for words.

Friday the thirteenth…what a day.

Tomorrow? I go get my nails done. They look like shit. And I can’t be havin’ that with such a pretty ring :)

Thanks for all the congrats on facebook and on twitter :) Y’all are incredible!
