That's fantastic news!! Congratulations!! I love how you did it too, sounds like a lovely, genuine day which I hope hope sets the tone for the rest of your life together :)
Oh, Lord. It may be my hormones, but reading
"Will you marry my mommy? Love, Lilwolfpackforever
Made me cry!LOL
SO sweet! Congrats! Do you have a picture of his ring?
I only got one word for this: WOW!!!!
And congrats!!!!
(And I think I wanna adopt Lil Wolfpk4evr) 
epppp - I just read your story history. Whew- I am glad this turned out positively--- I wish the best for your future with him and I really hope that time away made him realize what a good thing he owuld be missing!
@MsMamaBear: Yep. It's hanging on his cross necklace from his rearview mirror in his car....because he IS getting an actual ring, this one is really teensy. 
Yay!!!! Congrats!!! And hang on girl, you are on one hell of a ride now.
Update:
He gave me a ring as well....the day we announced our engagement to his family. I really, really like it. :D
Just an update.
Shutterbug left for good. Advice to all: Don't be a single bridezilla.....it will bite you in the rear.
Yikes, that's terrible. I want to know what happened too. So sad to hear...
Basically....when I pushed him for a wedding date: He wouldn't set one in stone, or state which year he wanted to get married.
Then he set one, and when it came time to put up or shut up, two days before our planned elopement to the next county courthouse: he said that he didn't want to set a date after all.
I got mad and he said: "Well....I don't really want to marry you anyway".
He and his parents packed up his stuff while I was at work three days later and left a note on the kitchen table saying "Call you later".
I kept believing that he would come back....last weekend, he approached me after religious services and told me that I needed to get out of my fantasy that he would return and that I needed to move on.
End. Of. Story.
I don't think that I EVER want to get married. If it's this much trouble....then count me OUT!
first, i'd like to say what a douche he was for leading you on for so long, he had to have known for sometime now that he wasnt interested in commiting to you. actions of a boy not a man.
second, you just invested in the wrong guy. it happens to the best of us. but dont let the wrong guy stop you from happiness with the potentially right guy who may come along. the RIGHT guy woulld never give you this much trouble.
give yourself time to heal, counseling if necessary, it worked wonders for me after a breakup before i met my FI, it also helped me see why i had a pattern of dating the wrong ones. best of luck to you, sorry it didnt turn out the way you wouldve liked.
Gosh that's terrible. I hope you do find the right guy after taking time to heal. I believe there's someone out there who will be good to your daughter AND you! HE will give YOU a magical proposal and not hesitate to set a date.
Keep your chin up. Can you switch churches?
I really like what @txbella: said. "... you just invested in the wrong guy. it happens to the best of us. but dont let the wrong guy stop you from happiness with the potentially right guy who may come along. the RIGHT guy woulld never give you this much trouble"
We've all dated the wrong men so dont beat yourself up. Be upset and grieve, then learn from this relationship and move on.
Sorry to hear that. I also believe what txbella said - he is the wrong one. I don't understand how he could purpose and then not want to set a date. I'm sorry that happened but you deserve to be with someone who is excited about getting married expecially after being engaged. Stay strong!!
@wolfpackforever: That's crap, what happened. Sorry to hear it. Don't give up on marriage (just give up on that jerk)!

So....for those who remember my saga with Shutterbug: Y'all were right, the moment I left, he stopped jerking around the chain. Last week, he met me at a party where I was. He said that he was wrong, wrong, wrong and that I was the only woman for him, begged for my forgiveness.... that as soon as we had stable jobs and finished school (fifteen months from now!) we'd marry. I said, well....I'll propose to you sooner or later. He said, good. I want to see what you'll come up with....just plan it well.
So....I had a plan.
My boss told me to take the day off today. Shutterbug and I went to see Bridesmaids, we're big on watching movies together, but hadn't gone to a theater to see a first run movie since our first official date almost a year and a half ago.....we were laughing so hard.....then we went to Sonic, a favorite drive-thru for us.....then to the fabric store which we crafty people love.....then to a new restaurant that we both had wanted to try.....then to our favorite coffee place for Chai Lattes.....it was a day of favorites.
Finally, we headed to Tahoe, and drove to one of our favorite places on the lake. He talked about how compatible we both were and on and on. I waited for him to stop talking and asked him to close his eyes and hold out his hand. He did, and I put the little ring with a blue stone in it that my daughter had picked out as "the prettiest" at a shop into his hand and closed his fingers over it. Then I told him to open them and the look on his face was worth all of the planning. Then, I pulled out a photo of my daughter that he loves and said "Lil'WolfPackForever, has something to say to you." He turned the photo over, which said.
"Will you marry my Mommy? Love, Lil'WolfPackForever"
He was about to cry and said: "Yes. Yes. Yes."
We drove off to celebrate at another favorite place: In-N-Out
A very, very nice day. I called my Mom right away and she congratulated us over the speakerphone. We will let the dust settle for awhile before telling his family.....they have a tendency to go wild with joy when good news hits in the family and we just want to savor our new stage in life for a few months.
