The other day when Lili was over she was telling us the story behind how her husband proposed to her. Now as most of you know, I'm the first to make gagging sounds at anything remotely "sappy", but Lili's story sure brought a tear to this jaded heart.
Her husband C. first called Lili's teenage son and asked his permission.
THAT is what brought a tear to my eye. Kids are my weak spot and C. sure was smart to do this. Jo of course said yes and then on to Lili's parents C. went. Showed up with a dozen roses and a good bottle of wine for the parents. After being grilled and flogged by Lili's mom, they gave the approval for the hand in marriage for their darling daughter. Then on to Lili, C. went.
Showed up with a rose and candy ring and popped the big question. That's true romance!
So how were your proposed to? For the men, how did you propose?
