I'm engaged! :O

Hi all,

Just wanted to say, a complete surprise and shock to me, lovely DP proposed last night. He asked DD(6) first if it would be ok to marry her mummy and she said yes was very excited and so he asked me, while I stood there in my pj's, no make up on, hair all wet from the bath and wondering what was going on!

So...just wanted to "announce" it here as I use this forum for all good bad and indifferent things.
