11 Years Ago I Asked Her …

Posted on March 24th, 2009 in Life and Family by Fred McKinnon

“Joy, will you marry me”?

I took a knee in the prayer chapel over at Epworth by the Sea. I was as nervous as I’ve ever been in my entire life. This woman of God was way out of my league. She’d been through hell and back and was more radiant than ever. What a woman. I certainly didn’t deserve her.

She said “yes”.

11 years, 4 kids later – life is great.

Happy Engagement Anniversay, Joy Baby.
Love you forever.
Fred

    I was thinking about you all the day you wrote this. Recently I have been able to afford cable again so now my fav shows are on TLC with the 6, 8, 12 children, like John and Kate. Anyways I was thinking how if you all had a show on tv I would totally watch it. And then it was funny because I thought how your show would also be an advertisement for twitter. And when I scrolled down on your blog I found that thing about twitter you posted! But most importantly Happy belated anniversary to you and Joy!
