Daddy Said Yes! YES!!!

Today, I emailed him to tell him that I just got engaged and attached a photo of THE RING. I was really feeling nervous as I typed the words. I expected him to be a bit angry/upset about my decision to get married. I checked my inbox and there it was. His reply. It felt like opening a letter of acceptance to a scholarship or reading a job offer stating that I have succeeded. Hahaha. I felt butterflies in my stomach. He said he has no objections but he just wanted to clarify that I'm not doing this because of Adjie.

Well, it's partly because of my brother. But really, who would get married just to run away from her brother? I'm just using it as an excuse so that I could be with Ryan forever. :) There's no one else I'd rather be with. I love my family and that's why we'll live just 5 houses away. Hahaha.

Thank you, Daddy, for accepting our union. :)
