So glad....

I told my mother tonight that Jeff and I plan to get married very very soon. It was a funny situation cause I said "Is calling Tony back incredibly important?" and she said "No, why?" I say "Cause I have something I want to tell you." She says something like go ahead but I think I already know what it is....I laugh and ask what she thought it was. Of course she thought I was pregnant. So I laughed that off and said "Nope, Jeff wants to get married."

As I babble on and on about the problems we're having as far as getting the date set and so forth she never mentioned anything about it "being too early" or anything at all that I thought she would say. I'm so happy for that. She asked me why I wanted to do it and what his parents would think and blah blah.... but all in all it was a very light-hearted conversation!

I knew that my nervousness about telling her was overrated. I knew as soon as I got it out I would feel better and she was going to accept me. I was very surprised I didn't get the littlest of a lecture, but who knows what thoughts I've left her with to keep her up while she tries to get to sleep tonight....

I can't wait for things to get underway and dates to be set so I can share them with her. I keep thinking more and more everyday how much easier it would be if Jeff was able to come up during the week but I think I'm just going to be thankful he's willing to come here and marry me at all. I've got my mom out of the way, but I'm really scared of what his parents are going to think.
