On August 6, 2016, Ron asked me to attend a wedding that he was a part of so I did and it was a beautiful ceremony. During the wedding my mind was all over the place..'that should be me in that dress', I deserve it,...he know I love him and want to spend my life with him....just going on and on with my thoughts to myself. So as the night went on, the ladies were called to the dance floor to catch the bouquet. I set there looking at the floor fill up with single women! I look at Ron and he have this look on his face and he say to me:

Ron: "go on out there and catch it babe"

Me:   "do you see all those women, I don't have a chance"

Ron:  "just go out there and have fun with it"

SO i walk myself to the floor and stand with a bunch of single women maybe with the same thoughts on their minds as mine and ready to knock each other down for this bouqet...so on the count of 3 the bride proceed to throw the flower and all the women leaped out to catch it and of course some other woman caught it..,.so I looked at Ron as I walk back to my seat and rolled my eyes at him for making me go out there and do that to myseld, as I go back to my seat, the D.J. annouced for all the ladies to return to the floor to catch another bouquet, now Im thinking....now don't the bride only have one bouquet to throw, I look at Ron and he just knod at the floor like go on and I went back to my lonely spot on the floor and waited for the 3 count, as the bride yelled on the count of 3...1,2, and on the 3rd count she turned to me and handed me the bouquet, now im thinking again....she must see the desperate look on my face lol.. but i had no clue what was bout to happen so I looked at Ron and started walking back to my seat and he met me on the dance floor with the words  "baby you know I love you" and proceeded to get on his knee and ask the question, "Will you marry me"....and that's when it Hit me, after I said YYEEESSSS, I realized the bouquet was part of the proposal!

I had no idea that I would be in a serious relationship only a year after ending one, but God answers prayers. I was working on getting things settled in my new home and working out detials with my babies, schedules, etc. My friend Harold Donahue and I were at his house one day and we were talking relationships and I shared with him that I had been praying for a true woman of God and that I would wait on God to send me one, after all the Bible says that it's not good for man to be alone. After about an hour of relationship conversation Dee came to mind. I had only met her in passing and had a brief conversation regarding putting a For Rent sign on her corner property. In that coversation I ask her what church she attended and she said Mt. Carmel which is my church y'all, After several months or maybe a year I made contact with Dee and the rest was history...and on August 6th, 2016 I proposed to her and she said YES!!!!!!!
