 I wish you both much love and happiness. Congratulations.
That's pretty good to plan a wedding in a week. Can't wait to see the pictures.

Thanks guys for the well wishes. I finished my bouquet last night - well almost - need more ribbon. I'm happy, yet scared to death at the same time. A friend told me it was natural, especially after I've been married once before. But I'm blissfully happy......never felt like this about anyone before....in my entire life.....never knew these feelings existed inside of me. This is different for me but a good kind of different. Everyone sees it not only on my face but glowing from my soul and in my voice (their words).
A little about my soon to be husband: I truly believe he is my soul mate. I like to call him the President and CEO of all men and of course that would make me the “1st Lady.” :)
I love him for the little things he does that so many women take for granted. Like when he kisses me in the middle of my forehead – this just melts me. Or if we are riding in the car and I say I’ve been meaning to get some Baskins & Robbins Pralines and Cream Ice Cream and he comes in the next day with a pint of it. Or while I’m sitting in a relaxing bubble bath from a long days work and he comes through the bathroom door and with a plate of strawberries and grapes and feeds them to me while I soak in my bubble bath. Then when I get out he has dinner almost finished cooking and my favorite drink Pomegranate Martini waiting for me. Then he listens to me and can recall conversations we had way back when we first me. (my heart flutters)
I love it when he surprises me on my break. He gets off work 2 and half hours before me. So, sometimes when I take my afternoon break he will pop up out of no where and ask if he can join me - even though we will see each when I get off work in 2 hours. He's truly a good person. His mom is elderly and he checks on her daily to see if she needs anything. I personally arrange our schedule so that he can take her shopping on Saturdays, which is only 1-2 hours tops. If I can't allow time for this man to spend time with his mom then what type of woman am I. And a man that is patient and loving with his mom will do the same with you.
This is why I love this man – the little things! Although, I do love the roses, perfumes, and other material things – it’s the small things I love most about him.
Thanks once again Afro Chat family!

I don't want to burst your bubble, but as my mum would say: 'I hope you know what you are doing.' You are a nice and smart girl and I won't want to know that someone has turned around and caused you pain and ruin your life.
Still congratulations to you.
