J and I met on myspace.com. I always say their slogan is "a place for friends" but for us is was "the place to meet the love of your life".

Back then I was so not into the whole meeting people online craze. I had been hearing so many horror stories here in my city. One girl met up with a guy she talked to online and the guy and his couisn rapped her and stole her car. That was enough to scare the daylights out of little old me.

When he first messaged me I totally ignored him but he was very persistent and so finally I responded. I remember typing "do you ever give up?" Lol. And I remember his response being "nope". From there we talked constantly online and then about a week later we exchanged telephone numbers and then met in person and ever since then we've been pretty much inseperable.

When we first started dating I was a wreck, just out of a tumultuous relationship to say the least. I was testy, somewhat cold and had trust issues because of my past relationships. I had been through so much heartbreak. I had a my heart in a block of ice. I was angry and it took him a while to get me to let my guard down even just a little bit. The moment I realized that I was falling in love, I did everything short of cheating that I could to push him away but he stayed and he fought the battle against the past relationship demons that had a hold of me. He loved me totally and unconditionally and soon that block of ice was just a puddle of water, he healed my heart and 3 months later we found out we were pregnant. I wasn't sure how he would feel but he was totally on board and that next May our son was born. He came early at 32 weeks scaring the holy crap out of the two of us but still he was so perfect and so tiny, only weighing 4 pounds 11 ounces. And so began our family.

The past two years and nine months (the current age of our son) have had their downs (we lost two babies to miscarriage and I almost lost my life during surgery) but have been mostly up with lots of travel and accomplishments. I look back at the story of us and I see how much I've grown and how blessed I am.

I'm so grateful for the life that I lead today. I couldn't have hand picked a better man, father, bestfriend, lover, provider, confidant and husband to be. I can not wait for June 19th, 2010!

And thats the shortened story of us. M & J.

You have now entered my proposal story.....

July 18th, 2009 was a normal day. It was a Saturday and J worked and I did my Saturday work around the house. Our son was with my mom for the evening.

After finishing my house work, I got dressed and sat and waited for J to get off of work because taking a walk down at the lakefront was our Saturday night thing to do. When he got home, he was figity but I didn't think anything of it because we hadn't even discussed getting engaged or anything so, that was the farthest thing from my mind.

We get in the car and he is eerily quiet. He usually has a million and one things to tell me when he gets home from work. I realize now that he was playing the whole situation out in his head a hundred times before we got there. I finally asked him if he was ok because he wasn't to talkative. He responded by telling me he was fine just a little tired. Me being me, I told him that we didn't have to go for the walk, we could just go home and go to bed but he was adament about going which confused me.

We get to the spot were we take our walks and there's this part that you can walk out on that over looks the lake so he takes me by the hand and guides me that way. So he's holding me in his arms, we just stand there quietly and the he starts to talk....

"Baby you know your the best thing that's ever happened to me. I think I love you more than I love myself. You complete me. You showed me how to have a family of my own, how to be responsible, how to share and not be so selfish, how to commit, how to love. Feeling the love that I have for you, I now know that I didn't know what love was til I met you. You have given me so much but the greatest gift you've ever given me is our son. The two of you are my world (he's moving to face me at this time). That is why (getting down on one knee, tears beginning to fall as I finally realize what's happening) I want you to be my wife. Will you marry me?"

It was the most beautiful thing! So perfect! And of course I said yes cuz well here we are but I just wanted to share.

And now for My Princess:
