|  |  | It was New Years Eve, and Don and I were attending night watch service at my church, like we have done ever since our first year together.
As we sat there holding hands and listening to the sermon, it was getting near the end and our Pastor said he had an announcement to make.
Suddenly, I saw Don get up and walk in front of the church. My heart started fluttering, I looked at his mom and also noticed that his little cousin had also walked in. That's when he called me up to meet him. I begin to cry because I knew he was about to propose, but I must admit I did not see it coming. He dropped down on one knee and ask me to marry him. Crying and smiling at the same time, in the presence of God, I said yes, yes YES! |
 |  | It was New Year's Eve "church night watch" and I was so nervous.
I had taken care of all the formalities beforehand. I let her mom know what I was planning to do and asked her dad for permission. The pastor of her church, let me know the signal and when it would be time for me to make my proposal.
I remember sitting in the service nervous, because I thought my very observant fiance, might notice that I had a square box in my pocket, but surprisingly, she didn't.
Her pastor asked if anybody have something special to say to bring in the New Year, so I stood up, grab her hand and nervously walked up to the front of the church. I took the mic, still holding her hand, looked into her eyes and I told her how much she meant to me and how much I love her, I dropped down on one knee. I felt like I was down there forever, and I pulled the ring box out and opened it up. She sat there crying covering her mouth, not saying a word. I was so nervous..lol. It was only moments but it felt like forever. The pastor said a few remarks. I asked her to marry me, she said yes and with that yes, she made all my dreams come true. |
