So you are probably wondering about the proposal.  Well here it is!

Bobby came home late the other night from watching the basketball game at a friends house.  I lit some candles and sat waiting for him.  I was very nervous but had just spoken with my sisters who had given me lots of courage.  When he came home, I held his hand and told him how much I loved him.  How there will never be an ultimately perfect moment.  How we have this one life and we have to realize the important things.  How we are sometimes a nontraditional couple so I was going to do the most nontraditional thing. 

So I asked him if he would be my family.  If we could spend the rest of our lives together.  

 He said yes!

We cried.

We laughed.

There were no rose petals or fancy desserts.  Just us at home.  It was magical.

A new chapter in our lives will begin.  I can't wait!
