Engaged!



My youngest daughter Jennie called me on Friday night and told me that she got engaged.

Wow! I mean WOW!!!!

She sounded so happy. So excited. Ecstatic! It’s hard to describe the feeling I felt. My body had goose bumps all over and my eyes welled up. I think the first thing I said to Jennie was ‘OhmyGod’. And then ‘Congratulations!!! What an amazing feeling to be able to experience.

The thing is - I knew it was going to happen. Adam, her boyfriend, (here is a picture of him) came over the house on Thursday and told me he was going to ask Jennie to marry him. He told me that she was an amazing person, that he really loved her and that he was going to take care of her. I gave him a big ‘bear’ hug. Probably scared him. Then he showed me the ring. It is beautiful.

I didn’t know when he was going to pop the question to Jennie so the call on Friday night was a surprise.

I’m still absorbing the news. I guess I’ll really start freaking out when the day comes that I have to give here away…..for now I’m still working on the engaged part.

Until next time. Passion Rules.
