engagement!
I'm pretty sure every human who reads my blog has met this boy I love named Joe, but on the off chance that I have readers who have not had the pleasure, please enjoy a picture:
He proposed two weeks ago with two hand-written songs, two Costa salads, and two tickets to the play that brought us together (AIDA). Oh and a ring!! For me, it was a done deal when I saw the Costa, but I still made him ask the question. And you're darn right I said yes.
Since we got engaged, life in general hasn't been all butterflies and rainbows, but our time together has been pretty close. I stress out easily, it turns out, but he calms me down. I postpone reception decisions, and he reminds me of what really matters. I hate making phone calls and applying for jobs and other hard to-do list items, but he helps me buckle down to finish what I start.
And these aren't the only things; they're what came immediately to mind from recent days.
I just can't wait until we're a little family!
But don't worry, you'll hear from me again before then. I have other big blessings to blog and big life changes, what with school and work starting a new schedule, so stick around and I'll come spill the beans on those as well.
For now, tonight, I am feeling very blessed.
And life is good.
