Oh....my....god!!

Yesterday turned out to be the bestest most unbelievable birthday i have ever had, and to be honest i really wasn't expecting it to be seeing as i'd already had my birthday treat on Thursday. i'll try to explain things in a logical order, but bear with me if i jump around a bit because i'm still so excited and happy and giddy about everything!

The day started off as i'd been told it would, with the now traditional hour where i get to call the shots and ask Sir to pleasure me in whatever way i desire (which was lovely as usual, lasted way longer than an hour and was pleasurable for us both!), then breakfast in bed while i opened my presents. i got some lovely presents including a 'jacuzzi bath mat' which goes on the bottom of the bath and makes the water all bubbly like in a jacuzzi, a 'bear in underwear' which made me laugh cos he's so cute, a big basket of smellies from 'the Sanctuary' range that Sir and i both love, cinema vouchers, chocolates and a new 'rabbit' vibrator (from Sir) which i really wasn't expecting but was a nice surprise. And no i haven't had chance to try it out yet because my period decided to turn up later that day *shrug*.

What we were intending to do for the day was go for a nice walk in the woods, have lunch at the pub down the road, then Sir was going to come and watch my riding lesson before cooking me a delicious birthday dinner. Well none of those things ended up happening, but i'm not complaining because what actually happened was so much better (even though i would have been very happy had the day gone to the original plan). i requested a 'free talk time' with Sir, which means a) that there is something important i need to tell Him about and b) that i am free to do so without the normal restrictions governing speech and so on. Basically i told Him that i have been feeling really broody recently, that my desire to have a baby has been growing stronger and stronger, and that while i am not sure why this feeling has occured it has been making me not want to wait for a few years like we both agreed would be best.

So we had a longggggggg discussion all about this, going into many different details, asking lots of questions and trying our best to answer them, and in the end decided that we will wait until Christmas and if i still feel the same way, we will try for a baby from the beginning of next year. Which obviously i am very happy about, although also nervous and apprehensive. We also agreed that i will make an appointment to see my doctor asap to tell him of our plans so he can advise me on the thyroid gland and miscarriage issues that we are already somewhat aware of. And then Sir did something completely amazing to me - He said that He's always planned to have children with me, but had assumed that we would get married first and that He's known for a while now that He does want to marry me. And then He said "well let's do this properly shall we?" and got down on one knee and proposed to me right then and there!!!!!!

Shocked and surprised doesn't even begin to cover how i was feeling right then. Just the sight of my Master kneeling to me was weird in itself, but trying to take in the fact that He was asking me to marry Him was making my head struggle to catch up. So after a long stunned pause i finally managed to whisper out "oh yes please Sir!", and the rest of the day became a flurry of activity with Sir whisking me off into town to visit various jewellers shops to look at engagement rings. We must have looked at hudreds of different rings, and first of all i was wary of the cost, asking Sir if He had a 'budget' for this but He told me not to even look at the price but to concentrate on finding a ring i really love, so i did and found the perfect one which is soooooooo beautiful and i love it sooooo much, and He bought it and we went out to lunch with me staring at my new sparkly ring in wonder. Then we came back home and i immediately started phoning everyone to tell them the news - my parents, my sister, my cousin, my friends, even my boss at work. And Sir phoned His mum and His brother, then His friends..... and then the phone started ringing with people who had just been told the news from someone else, and it went on and on, and i was so happy and excited and just kept saying the same story over and over to different people. And before we knew it, it was time for dinner so we just went down the fish & chip shop and brought home a take-away, and it was the best birthday meal :) And i kept coming out with all these things to Sir about what would need to be organised and how happy i was and i must have told Him "thank You" and "i love You" so many times! But He was so happy as well that it didn't matter. When i went on the chatroom in the evening, i wanted flamesoul to be the first to know, but she was afk so i spent what seemed like forever bouncing on the sofa trying to hold it in and then suddenly it just burst out of me and i announced it to everyone in the chatroom - lol. Everyone was really sweet to me, and then flamesoul showed up and we spent the rest of the time talking babies and weddings, and she has agreed to help me with both as much as she can, which is good because i will need all the help i can get!

So there you have it - my 28th birthday. Oh, and no we haven't set a date for the wedding yet, but as soon as we have i'll post it on here - we're expecting it be sometime in summer 2009, which gives us 2 years to prepare for it. And hopefully all being well we'll have our first child together before then. There's going to be a separate blog set up for baby stuff and one for wedding stuff, so this one doesn't get too bogged down with all those details, and so that people who aren't interested in that don't have to read it all. i'll post the addies as soon as i have them. Today i'm just a happy, excited, overwhelmed, giddy mess and feeling like the luckiest girl in the world. Everything is great and my life is so good :) i definately made the right decision when i got collared by Sir because things have gone up and up since then...... Just one thing - is it possible to die of happiness? ;) (Here's a pic of the actual ring i got .... you don't even want to know the cost!:)

Mood: overwhelmingly happy
