Once Upon a Right Now: Im Engaged!!

When I was 3 I told my dad, "When I grow up I'm gonna marry Jesse Richardson!" Well guess what? Three year olds are pretty smart. Last Tuesday March/6th/2012 Jesse Richardson asked me to marry him!! And I said YES!! It has been quite the roller coaster with Jesse and myself. I have always loved My Jess... He on the other hand has always been a little unsure. He was the first boy I liked, the first boy I held hands with, the first boy I kissed, and the first boy to break my heart. He left to Honduras and I forced myself to let him go.... September 20th(Our birthday) always made me think of him, but I did pretty good. Then with some crazy fate we ran into each other 2 years later on December/22/2011. I was heading to a wedding reception, and Jess was going to a raffle thing at the city building. The reception happened to not be that night (I conveniently read it wrong) Jess couldn't find parking any closer then the church. We just happened to both have bad luck at the same time putting us in a path of the best luck ever. I am so grateful for my miss reading. :) Had that not have happened I would have headed back to New Jersey at not have even seen my Jess. That moment right then changed EVERYTHING for me. I fell right back in love with him. I sat there staring at his truck pull up. At first I wanted to run then I decided to suck it up and atleast say hi. Hi was not enough for me... I couldn't control myself... I looked at him and it just slipped. When people say, "word vommit" well yeah I experienced that right then. Out of my mouth came, "Can I hug you?" I couldn't believe I had said that... Here is this newly returned missionary not to mention the one that ending everything with me before he left and I just asked to hug him. I wanted to run away really bad. But then he pulled me into that BIG bear hug. I felt my entire body go weak and I swaer I could have stayed like that all day. Then I thought, oh great you are gonna put yourself though this again and again.... You are never gonna stop loving this boy are you? And its true I NEVER will. I left him my number and He called the next day. I can't believe how fast we both fell in love.... It is still so unreal. I got asked out on a date by one of my great friends and normally would have been trilled to go, but I didn't want to be with anyone but Jesse. I went and made my sweet little cousin bring Jesse along. They danced together and I danced with my date. Jess and I would just watch each other and smile so big... We were done for. When we finally got a chance to dance with one another everyone else in the room became non existent. When the dance was almost over Jess and I took Brooke(my cousin) home then headed to the temple. We had a great walk hand in hand and we talked anout a lot of things and memories. It was a great night. But it was gonna be the last night for a long time and we both new that. I would be flying back to the East coast the next day. Jesse with a bit of persuasion finally kissed me. :) We might have kissed a few more times before we finally said goodnight. It was like a dream come true for me. I headed back to New Jersey and to my surprise it didnt end there. Jesse emailed me almost daily, then he got a phone and we called each other often. Then over spring break he flew out to visit me for a week. It was a pretty great week. On a great hike in Cheaster New Jersey on March 6th Jesse got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife and spend forever with him. Thats right I am going to marry MY JESSE!! I dont have to get over him or let go this time.. I am finally allowed to Love Jesse.
