Eight Years Ago......

Eight years ago today.  He was twenty.  I was seventeen.  He told me we were going hunting.  We weren't.  But I believed him.  We drove.  We hiked.  We found a beautiful waterfall.  We found a set picnic lunch with flowers.  I thought we were crashing someone else's beautiful lunch.  Then he got down on one knee and asked  me to marry him.  I cried.  I said yes.  He put a ring on my finger.

Today, I'm more in love than I can say.  Eight years ago feels like eighty years ago.  But it also feels like yesterday.
