Last present I opened was his engagement ring. Said I needed time to decide, as I was 21 (and he was 31). Two days later said yes. Wed in July the following summer. Now married over 31 years. Definitely my Happily Ever After.Laney4https://www.blogger.com/profile/06990122242183752771noreply@blogger.com
