Yesterday was my birthday. Todd had to work that night, so we decided that we would have my birthday dinner tonight. We went to Kuma’s Asian Bistro in Naperville, and had a wonderful meal. I noticed that when Todd was eating his soup, his hand was shaking. I thought it was a little odd, but didn’t say anything. After our dinner dishes were cleared away…

Todd started talking about how our first date was the day after his birthday and how we celebrated our first anniversary the day after. I wasn’t really sure where he was going with this…I just thought we were taking a stroll down memory lane. So here we are celebrating my birthday the day after the actual event.

The Todd reached into his pants, stood up, and went down on one knee…

And asked me to marry him.

I said YES!
