We're Getting Married!!!

It was the day of Schaffer's, my soon to be husband's, birthday. His family and I had planned a birthday party for his "Dirty 30". Leading up to the day, I had no intentions of anything. One comment that I always made to him for if he was going to propose is, "I need to have my nails done". He did just that. The day of the party after eating and mingling, Schaffer's mom, "Ma Vick" as I call her, said it was time for gifts. She instructed me to help with the cards. I'm not thinking anything about it because we planned the party and I am, at this time his girlfriend. It was the last card. It was beautiful in a variety of ways. I unwrapped the card and began to read a scripture. The card said, "1 Corinthians 13:13 reads, Three things will last forever-faith, hope and the greatest of these things is love." In life, you look for someone that is perfect, but in my case, I wanted to be blessed with someone that is perfect for me. When you know, you just know, and I know that I love and want forever with you. I'm not a man of many words..... and it went from there. I couldn't control it. While reading I was getting choked up and even he knew that I would. Schaffer told me "just keep reading baby". I am what he wanted. I finished reading the card with tears in my eyes to look and see my boyfriend, my everything, the one I wanted on one knee asking me to marry him. All I could do was shake my head, when the ring was on my finger it became real. I was about to be not just his girlfriend, but fiancee' and soon to be wife. All I could do was cry. I was full of so much joy and happiness especially for him to make that decision on his special birthday. Now, Here I am, the Future Mrs. Ross.
