This is the scariest thing I've ever had to do....
My heart is pounding now.
Jimmy,
My heart has been bugging me the past few
weeks. And my head keeps telling my heart to shut up. This has been
very......frustrating for me. I keep pulling you out to talk to you,
but each time, I find I just can't find the words. So, I best thought I
could do this by showing you a picture of what my heart says.
These
are our walks on the beach. One of the many moments we've shared
together that has brought so much happiness to my life. Just as you
have. No one in my life has written me a poem just to let me know I had
a late Christmas gift that was coming. It was so sweet, and it just
made me want to cry, because you thought enough about me to write it.
You bring this magic into my life I can only describe in drawings, from
the way you look right into my eyes, to the way you hold my cheek with
your hand when you kiss me. I know no more joy than to watch you
rolling on the floor, making Paulie laugh, or when you stoop down to
hug Angelina when she is upset. Somehow, I have become a part of this.
And you...you're my best friend. Someone I can't keep a secret from if
I tied my tongue in a knot. Someone I can spend the whole day with,
laughing, and having a great time. Someone I can drive hundreds of
miles with, and feel the trip there was just as good as the event
itself. I know we've talked a lot, about us, about the kids, about
possible kids of our own, along with the BS we've had to go through, up
until now. My head tells me I'm stupid for asking you this. But my
heart tells me it's right for me, and that I'm ready. I'm scared to
death, and I have tears on my cheeks, and my heart is pounding. But
like you say all the time....I'm one step ahead of you.
Jimmy, I love you. You couldn't make me the happiest woman on earth,
because I already am. I knew that weekend, that this wasn't over. We
had just begun. I would love nothing more than to wake up curled in
your arms every morning, or spending the whole day fishing, or tucking
the kids in at night......hell, I guess I wouldn't even mind you
throwing another sand dollar at me. You know how I feel. That when you
meet that special someone, forever isn't long enough....
Jimmy, would you marry me?
I know it's a bit backwards here, but you know I am the non-conformist.
I don't have a ring to give you, and the only thing I have to give, I
gave you......my heart. All I ask in return is that we walk side by
side, instead of one of us behind, or ahead. This is an offer to you,
to give you my life, in return, love me like I love you.
As always,
Your Love,
Manda
