We’re Getting Hitched!

It’s official. Jen and I are going to get married. We went to Central Park yesterday. I took her out on one of the row boats that you can rent. I rowed her out to the middle of the lake, managed to get down on one knee in the boat, and [...]

“Each morning she wakes
with a dream to describe
something lovely that bloomed
