Because... the first time I met Benni (on set), he didn't talk to me for the first four hours (he told me later he was intimidated),
Because... we were both with other people romantically when we met so we struck up a very natural friendship while our relationships ran their course,
Because... after we got out of those relationships we waited a while so that we didn't make each other the rebounds,
Because... we were both with other people romantically when we met so we struck up a very natural friendship while our relationships ran their course,
Because... after we got out of those relationships we waited a while so that we didn't make each other the rebounds,
Because... he makes me laugh harder and smile more than any man I've ever been with,
Because... I am a better person because of being with him,
Because... he kicks my ass at Scrabble and chess but he lets me kick his ass when it comes to grammar and vocabulary and Shakespeare quotes,
Because... his eyes are the brightest blue I have possibly ever seen,
Because... he's a better cook than I am, so he cooks four out of five meals (hey, I do the dishes!),
Because... he has faced unspeakable tragedy in his life, losing two family members before he reached the age of 25, and he still has the most open, non-cynical heart I know,

Because... he has faced unspeakable tragedy in his life, losing two family members before he reached the age of 25, and he still has the most open, non-cynical heart I know,
Because... he is the sweetest, kindest, most thoughtful guy I know, but doesn't take crap from a lot of people,Because... he is patient and understanding with me, but doesn't hesitate to kick my butt if I need a verbal butt-kicking,
Because... he loves long walks in the evenings as much as I do, loves hiking as much as I do, loves hot chocolate as much as I do, and loves small, furry animals as much as I do,
Because... he looks at me like I'm the most beautiful girl on earth (this is even at 8 am when I'm in PJ's three sizes too big and my hair looks like it came from a Lady Gaga video) Because... he forces me to put my b.s. aside, shoot my ego and ask questions later, and be an adult and have adult conversations,
Because... he wears his heart on his sleeve (literally, he has a freckle that's the shape of a heart on his arm),
Because of all these things, and a few thousand more...When Benni got down on one knee and asked me to marry him on Thanksgiving, in front of my family, I said yes.
yes yes yes yes yes.

Lol THANK YOU!!!
Absolutely freaking perfect on every level! You two are the description of love not found in a dictionary, but found in the depths of hearts and souls.
I couldn't be happier for you sweet friend! (Hugs)Indigo
