July 27, 2004

Eight years ago you woke up in the morning and decided to go out and buy a diamond ring.  You wanted it to be perfect.  You chose a band of white gold with 6 channel-set diamonds (one for each year we had been dating) with a diamond soliatire in the middle (a 7th diamond, to represent us marrying in our 7th year of being together.) 

Eight years ago you went to my father and asked for his permission to marry me.

Eight years ago you brought me to the spot along the river where we had our first date and surprised me--not with a kayak like you told me on the phone-- but with a question. 

Eight years ago I cried tears of joy and answered "yes".

Happy Proposal-versary.  I love you.
