And that he had had some thinking time today, and had done some analyzing, but he wouldn’t tell me what about.
But he said he had thought about all the reasons he liked me: because I was kind and generous and pretty (actually, he said hot).
And then he said he wanted to make this work so badly.
And he said his dad loved me.
And he said I was like his mom, and that she loved me too, and had sent that picture of us to who knows how many people.

That he couldn’t wait to see me.
That I would always be his princess.
Hi, I'm Whitney. I am first and foremost a child of God, a mum to two rambunctious little boys, and lucky enough to call the most amazing man I know my husband. By day, I run a stationery company, and consult at the intersection of tech and graphic design. At night, I dream of charming cottages by the sea, silk ballgowns, and a perfectly organized office.
