We just got engaged this past July (2008), I had no clue that he was going to propose. I came home from a really long day at work and he met me in the yard which is kind of unusual for him because he was suppose to be in class. I asked if everything was ok (his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer only a couple weeks prior to this) and he said he needed to talk to me, so I sat on the bench in our yard. He sat down with me and took my hand (his was so sweaty) and I thought "Ok is he about to dump me?" LOL. But then he started to tell me how much he loved me and wanted to be with me for the rest of our lives. He then called our youngest daughter over, who was riding her power wheel. She came strolling over and took the box out of the seat of her little car (MUSH!). She said "Daddy, do you need the box now?" and he asked me to marry him! So that's where we are now, planning the rest of our lives together.
