On May 18th, The Boy proposed.  Obviously I said yes.  So...we are engaged...and gloriously happy.  We're thinking June 2013.  There are not enough words to really describe how I feel about him.  He's my absolute hero, the love of my life, the other half of my soul, the warmth of my world, my courage when I'm afraid, and my best friend.  I can't wait to be able to devote all my energy to being his wife and eventually the other of his children. 

Also, congratulations to New York to coming around.  I'm so excited.  How can two people loving each other and making a committment be a desecration to marriage?  Especially when not even Christians have loving marriages. 
God is Love. 
Love is Good. 

Let's focus on having more love in the world.  God revealed Himself to different cultures in different ways, and all His stories have been twisted an corrupted by mankind.  But from what I can tell from the ones I've studied, the central message is the same: love and be positive.

After the Winter, the Sun Comes Out

It's been ages since I've even thought of my blog here.  I miss having internet access to share whims and thoughts and hopes with others...to read theirs and share mine.  I'm such a social person, even though I spend so much time on my own.

The boy and I are still quite loverly.  The Ring has been purchased, though his best friend is still hiding it from me.  Quite adorable.  Another semester is almost over for him, which brings us closer to our utopia of special education and a home together as one.  So I sit here today, him sick in bed and me beside the bed typing my heart...Eddie Izzard on the tv keeping the boy awake while I lean against his shoulder.  I love him always, from the most romantic of outings to the most mundane of afternoons sitting at home.  He's my tiny hero.  I wouldn't trade him for the world.

Life.  Who knew I'd ever end up here?  Or that it could possibly be this wonderful?  I can't wait to see what else life brings us.
