We went to the mall to buy some candles.  He said "do you want to go the jewelry store?"  I said "sure why not".  I thought we were just going to look.  He asked the clerk about wedding rings.  I just stood there with my mouth hanging open.  We went to every jewelry store in the mall.  I found what I wanted and he bought it!  I was shocked and happy at the same time!
Now we have to plan how to do this and when.  I want all of my kids here when we do it.  One of my daughters lives almost 600 miles away and they don't have a lot of $ but if they know far enough in advance they can do it.  I am leaning towards Easter weekend or maybe the week my granddaughter is out for spring break.
Talk about happy!  I haven't been this happy in a very long time.
I won't have the ring for 10 days though because they have to size it.  I think that disappointed him.  That's okay, I can wait.  I have to wait until we get married to wear it anyway.  If it's not here, I won't want to wear it.
Can you tell I am happy?

    Thank you.  I am going to try real hard to be happy.  He wouldn't have done this if he wasn't ready and sure about it.

    I hope it all works out for you openclose... I really do!

    I thank you all for the good wishes.  We are leaning towards the weekend of March 21.  I do believe I have one child that is not happy about this.  The youngest, which does not surprise me.  She is the spoiled daddy's girl.  Unfortunately she is the one that lives here at home with us.  She has stayed away from home for the last several nights.  I would like all of my children to be happy for us but I can't make them.  The other two are.
