30.12.17 - aka greatest day ever.

So, I've sat and stared at this blank page for a considerable amount of time. I honestly don't even know how to put into words how unbelievably happy I am right now.

Remember I told you that I was going on a trip to Japan with the love of my life? Well, that trip has now ended, and it was nothing short of amazing. To this very day, I don't think I've ever had a trip where I have felt so at peace with everything, or so undeniably in love.

I felt that way the entire first week we were there. And then.......

The most incredible, kind-hearted, thoughtful man I have ever met ASKED ME TO MARRY HIM!!!
(and of course, I said yes!)

The poor thing dealt with my morning moodiness with the early wake up, but it was well worth it. Immediately my heart started beating out of my chest, my hands/legs began to shake and I was just super shocked and overwhelmed with what was happening. It is what I have dreamt about for so long - with him. Before him, I genuinely wanted to be the 'cool aunt' who was career focused, rather than a wife or a mother. Then I fell totally head over heels and since that moment, my perception completely changed - and now it's really happening!

A week and a half on, and I am still pinching myself. I cannot believe my luck. We have spoken about it for so long but it is set in stone that I am actually truly going to marry my best friend. I know from the bottom of my heart, we are great together and will continue to be great together in all of those things that come along in life. We know each other's deepest secrets, fears, beliefs and wonderings - we get each other. You've read me write it time and time again, but I absolutely love him to death.

Knowing that I am going to get to spend the rest of my life with such an amazing man gives me butterflies. I would never want to do life without him by my side and the happiness that comes with knowing that I will never have to is priceless.

I know you're reading this babe, and to you I really want to say 'thank you', and I can't say it enough. Not for proposing, I know you don't want me to thank you for that. And not for the beautiful ring (and might I say, it is bloody stunning!) But thank you for the endless support and encouragement, the shoulder to cry on, the laughs and the memories. Thank you for allowing me to grow and for growing with me. Thank you for your trust, your openness and your honesty. Thank you for working through the difficult times and smiling with me through the brighter ones. Most of all, thank you for loving me. I love you, unconditionally.

So it's him and I through thick and thin, ride or die, and I could not be happier!!!! xx
