It was Labor Day weekend, September 2004. We were both attending a cookout at a mutual friend's apartment. We had a few exchanges throughout the evening. I didn't know then that he'd be forever my Superman, but he certainly knew that I'd be his forever. He told my Godbrother, "I'm going to marry your sister". The rest is history...
We took a couple's cruise to Nassau and spent the afternoon ashore shopping, touring the island, and jet skiing. It was there on the stunning shores of Cabbage beach where he sorta popped the big question. He pulled a little black box from his backpack and told me to put it on. It wasn't the first time he bought me jewelry, so I didn't think much of it until I opened the box. Looking back at me was a beautiful solitaire enveloped in an equally beautiful halo. Heck yeah I put it on!
