| celstu1 | 09-11-2012 11:46 AM | 1 Year ago, 11 Years ago today! Obviously we all know that today is the anniversary of the horrible tragedy of 9/11.
But today has a second, more joyful meaning to me personally.... 1 year ago, my husband asked me to marry him!
He was going to propose on 9/10/11, but I messed up his plans by agreeing to go away for the night with friends without checking with him first. He told me to go and have a good time, when I told him I was going.... little did I know, he had planned to propose that night. Ooopppsss...
Anyways, he asked me if it bothered me that he proposed on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 and I said something like This day brings such sadness and horrible memories to people's minds. I love that you put a bright spot in an otherwise very sad day for us and everyone else.
So while I will always remember where I was, what I was doing when the towers fell, and the days afterwards, the shock, the horror, going to the grounds after it happened, the support and prayers I sent out to those affected and the deep sadness I'm sure we all still feel over this, I'm also celebrating today, my love, my best friend, my husband. |
