They're all starting to look the same

Let's start with last weekend...
My Accelerator took my roommate to look at engagement rings. While I was listening to Shannah tell me about the experience & how she was freaking out, I started to realize I wanted that experience, too. This whole time I've been hoping D would take me, but at the same time figuring he wanted to do it all himself. But my heart really wanted the experience of us going & looking at them together...to make things more real.

So, Tuesday night I asked him if we could go look at rings together sometime. He said he'd already been thinking that & wanted to take me on date night.

Which brings us to last night.

We got a late start, but we went to Helzberg & started trying on rings. We were friends with the guy helping us, which was fun at first, but at the same time, it was hard. I didn't want to say what I liked for fear that it would be shot down by one of them...all the rings started looking the same to me & I was dying to get out of there.

We left & went to dinner after I cried & told D how I felt. Then sat in the car after dinner crying some more & being honest about where my heart is...I won't go into detail, but it was good to get to let him know what I was feeling & hear him tell me where he's been. I just get to trust Jesus & trust Dusty with the timing of it all.
