This past weekend I went up to Tofino for a romantic getaway. We were able to book the perfect room - oceanside, kitchenette, soaker tub etc. It was incredible. The bliss was in being able to hear the waves against the shoreline and spending such precious moments with my love.
The first day we got up to our wonderful hide-away, David took me for a walk at low tide and just at sundown. We walked to Middle Beach Lodge's private beach and instantly I was transported to kid-like giddiness. We ventured onto the exposed sand and, like a small child, I chased the waves.
As I turned in my glee, David was on one knee in the sand, a look of pure adoration in his eyes. My heart leapt and I was overcome with joy.
"You are my sun, my moon, and my stars in my sky."
He asked the age-old question, and I answered the way we both wanted to hear. Ecstatic (as we should be) we let both of our parents know and were overwhelmed with words of congratulations (and maybe a few shrieks of joy).
My next year and a half is going to be a whirlwind of excitement, planning, and maybe a little bit of stress, but I know that my fiancé will be with me every step of the way. He's my rock and my anchor in times of storm and I love every bit of his character.
