I don't need the typical symbol of engagement to feel like I'm already devoted to forever. I have everything I want and need right in front of me (or next to me, if you will). I love this man more than I've ever loved another person and I love his son as if he were my own. How could I be so lucky to have fallen in love with the perfect man? How could such a great man love me back? What have I done to deserve all of this? He claims - nothing and everything at the same time (which makes him all the more perfect).
Do I need a ring to feel like we'll be together forever? No. Do we need a ceremony to show everyone how much we love each other? No, that's what social networking is for.. Hehe! Now, don't get me wrong... I definitely want all those things, I'm just willing to wait as long as my boys need me to wait! :)
