    I was just thinking about you the other day and wondering what had happened to you. Now I see you've been very busy. Let my congratulations ring out among the chorus. What a wonderful story!

    Thomas asked me to marry him last night!

    We took a walk about 9 p.m. to a small park near my apartment. We were looking up at the stars, holding hands and watching the fireflies. Then I saw a shooting star.

    The next thing I know, he is down on one knee. "I love you with all my heart," he said, with tears in his eyes. "Will you marry me?"

    Of course I said yes through my own tears and he put the most beautiful ring on my finger.

    How quickly and wonderfully our lives can change. The struggles of 2006 are virtually forgotten, and now I know they had a purpose because it is only because of that string of events that I met Thomas.

    Wonder if we can go mountain biking on our honeymoon.
    Congrats!! A mtn bike expedition on your honeymoon sounds really neat- go for it. Jenn

    Congratulations, Susie! Have fun planning your wedding and remember, focus on your life together AFTER the wedding. Hopefully, Thomas is obsessed with riding, too. My husband never says anything when I buy bike shwag. He just goes and buys more for himself!!!

    I know I shouldn't say this because it's waaaaay too soon to even hope this, but I feel like I just met my future husband tonight.
