Michael worked up the nerve on July 2nd to get down on his knee and propose to me. I was stunned. My immediate reaction was not to trust it. I thought he was kidding, playing around. He was teary in the eyes, surrounded by laundry and toys while I changed the bedding in the boy's room. He held a plastic blue ring that said "Be Cool" and told me it would be replaced. He explained how he ran in the house and right up the stairs before he lost his nerve.
So this was it. This is how our story begins again. I hugged him and we kissed to the boys amusement. This is exactly how it is supposed to be. I am surrounded by my every day life and my for ever loves and I feel so very fulfilled and loved.
He looks at me and sees who he wants to spend the rest of his life with; why did I never fully feel this before right now. I trust so little when it comes to matters of the heart. I am scared and unsure, except....
when I am in My Michael's arms. He makes my world okay. It has not always been this way with us, but we have put much effort into giving our relationship a chance.
We have been speaking of weddings and marriage and growing old together for some time. This makes it all so real and actual and so very official.
I am excited for the next steps. He looks at me differently today. I know I can trust this.
