He Proposed!

Yes yes - I am the soon to be Mrs. Delgado. well we are BOTH changing our names to Thomas (his uncles name) for our wedding. So far the plans are June of 2011. That gives us two years. My divorce will be a year behind us and because of who our best man and maid of honor is we need to wait that extra year to make thing easy for everyone. Plus, a year goes by hella fast and with how hectic this year has been and will be at least until December I said no way do I have time to plan a wedding for THIS year. So I finally got him to agree to 2011.
How did he do it you ask? WELL! Turns out he has this big elaborate plan to do it at my work, everyone was in on it. But, in the usual Hector style he couldn’t wait. I had him pick me up early from work Monday. I was fuming about all the idiots at work. I climbed into bed and he climbed in with me and we were snuggling and talking and sweet nothing’ng it up Haha and he said, I have something for you…and he pulled it out. His mothers Engagement ring. He said the sweetest things ever. Of which I would like to keep most of what he said between us (keeps it special) but part of what he said was – even though everything around us seems to be going wrong, we are so right. And things like I want to wake up at 5am on the weekends because Kendra climbs into bed with us. I want to watch you tuck her in between us and us 3 watch cartoons, every Saturday for the rest of my life. He is amazing. I love the ring to death, it has so much meaning to it that his mother gave it to him to give to me. But as you know I like big big rocks lol. so I will always keep this ring on but we are going Friday to pick out engagement rings. I'm tickled pink.
This time seems so much different. When Scott asked me to marry him it was more of because we HAD to. I was 4 months pregnant and needed insurance. It never felt like this. I never felt the warmth and excitement that I do now. When I was with Scott, it was as if I knew we wouldn’t last forever. I wasn’t happy. With hector however I can really see us together forever, I know that sounds cheesy but its true lol!! Plus I told him I will never go through another divorce so if one of us wants out one of us is going to have to die lol. Even from the frist few months we were talking about “when we are married….” “when we have kids….” Its like we always just knew. I'm very exited. Everyone is exited for us. Its only a year and a half into our relationship but shit, we have gone through more things together than most married couples. And we did it holding each others hand. And even in the few times where I said “no I cant take this anymore” or he made a stupid choice to go visit the wrong person this is a specific event as you can tell haha) we always had each other in our hearts. We have made this work despite all the things, people, animals, what have you trying to create obstacles, barriers and trying to tear us apart. If we can make it through all that, we can make it through anything. I love him with all my heart and I cant wait to spend forever with him. Plus, I’m getting old! I'm going to be 23 next month, I need to get on this marriage and kids wagon!!! Hhaha jk jk. Love you bitches!
