It would have taken a lot of courage for him to do that.
I can't stop smiling and leaking tears.
I'm so proud of him for being such a gentleman and brave enough to be so romantic. She will be flashing that stone and gold at every opportunity and be over the moon.
He seems more a 'man' than 'a son' now.
It's great when true love works things out.
Have to go and get more tissues |
Now just the wedding to pay for. 
Nice one congratulations all round.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
As defirish says, very good news. It's lovely to hear that old fashioned values are still alive and being practised by the youth of to-day. Congratulations to your son and his fiancée.
