A Carat for Me Cause He Loves Me

I woke up this morning in a really bad mood.  I have a tendency to do this, but rarely as bad a mood as the one I awoke in today. 

Anyways, to fix a bad mood, for me, I always try to talk things over with Eddie.  So, I text my bf of seven years and asked him to come home and spend the day with me.  Being that it had rained, he was off work and he said he was more than willing to drive all the way from Louisville (over an hour away) to spend the day with me.  I am so blessed to have him within my life.  That man really will do anything for me.  He would drive all the way around the world to spend time with me.  He is so wonderful. 

Before he got here, he told me he wanted me to look something up on the Internet.  He gave me the web address and when I looked at it I was in awe.  He asked me if I liked what I saw, and if I did, he was going to buy it for me (which he did).  Well, you have probably already guessed that what he was asking me about is in the picture above...an engagement ring.  He said he wanted to surprise me, but most of all, he wanted to make sure that I liked the ring.  I ain't too much into surprises, and anyone that knows me knows that, so I'm not at all upset that he chose to go ahead and inform me that he wants to get engaged. 

The only catch is, this will be the second time we are engaged.  But I don't suppose that's really a catch.  The first time around things didn't really work out.  There were bad choices made on both of our parts, but through God's help, we have both been able to forgive each other for the poor decisions made, and most importantly, we have grown to love each other through our mistakes. 

I guess when I sit back and think about it I wouldn't change a thing.  Eddie and I are perfect the way we are.  We may not be perfect individuals, but together, we make a great couple, and we share a great life together!!  Our lives put together are a divine combination.  I can testify to that because I see proof of it everyday through our son. 

I hope and pray that each one of you who reads this posting gets to experience the kind of love with someone that Eddie and I share.  It truly is something special.  It's not everyday that something so wonderful and beautiful can be made out of something that was at one time such a mess.  Just always remember, if you have something that is a mess in your life, good things can come out of it.  Hand it over to God; he can create beauitful things out of the messiest things in life.
