Part Two: SUMMERTIME…I wrote a post in June about engagement rings. Ha! I actually took a quiz about engagement rings and posted it online. Funny that the ring selected from the quiz ended up being not too far off from the perfect ring ever–ours!

I was the happiest girl ever after work and a pouty little fatty lip Jenny on Sunday night after He Who Makes Me Smile dropped me off at the apartment. My heart…and home were no longer in the city, it was just a matter of time. I’s got a case of “when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible” -its.

Then July happened.

July was a very, very, very emotional and difficult month. One of these days I’ll write about it, but for now, all I can say is from the moment I saw He Who Makes Me Smile after finding out his mama passed…I never, ever, ever wanted to let him go. (I’m crying just typing these few words.) I’ve never felt a more protective, intense love toward anyone, ever. We spent about two weeks together, day in and day out, trying to make sense of it all before it was time to go back to work and take me back to the city. This time it wasn’t just a fatty lip, it felt wrong being without him. I was MISERABLE.

As soon as it was possible, over Labor Day Weekend I moved HOME to the country with He Who Makes Me Smile where life makes sense.

…just a matter of time before we made everything official with an engagement announcement…
