 | On December 25, 2013 was one of the best days of my life, but it was also one of my most nervous days. My day began with me working on a mandatory shift. I could not focus at work because this proposal was on my mind and it was driving me crazy. I had a little talk with my mom before this day to let her know I wanted to do it on Christmas day. I wasn’t sure what Katrina was gone say. I knew she really wanted to take her time with getting married and wanted to make sure that the guy she was with was the right one! So, I definitely was nervous going into this day. Katrina and I had Christmas dinner all prepared prior to Christmas Day because we knew I would be stuck at work. Therefore, by the time I got off all we had left to do was eat dinner and exchange gifts. Needless to say I decided to invite my mom and Mr. Willie over so I wouldn’t be so nervous but still got cold feet with them being there! About 5 or 10 mins after they arrived I asked them to leave. Lol. Once mama & Mr. Willie was gone Katrina and I proceeded to do our gift exchange. My poor baby was feeling bad and was so sick that day; I was hoping that this would cheer her up a bit. I asked her was she ready for her gifts and she said yes and at that point she was sitting on the couch. I then proceeded to the traditional one knee and began to tell her how she has been nothing but a joy in my life and how she has made me so happy over the past few years we were together. I told her I wanted her to be my other half and couldn’t spend the rest of my life without her. I saw in her eyes that she began to tear up and cry, from that point I asked her to marry me with the ring.
