So now my entire family knows that the boy and I are engaged. My brother was (more than) a bit upset at being the last to know in the immediate family. The thing is, he and I were so close, and then the war of 2007 happened, and it's been hard to get as close again.
Telling him made me so happy. And I guarantee to keep my promise to him, that the very first invite I address will be to my brother and his family.
I saw the boy's parents today while I picked up pseudo-niece and they seemed so pleased. Not excited, so much, but calm. Like they already know my presence and know that the boy and I are well-matched. I find this amazing and exciting and fun and ...honestly, I can't think of another adjective.
This year the boy and I are combining presents and cards and all that holiday stuff. Do you know what this means to me?
It means that it's real, and he's in as 100% as I am.
