Mrs. Eleni T.

Kyle and I have been friends since high school. In class, we had both secretly had crushes on each other, but continued to see other people. After Kyle graduated, I continued with my senior year and we began to lose contact as he started college a half an hour away and the next semester went to Basic Military Training for the Air Force. But over this past summer, we started talking again and things just took off since then... Kyle was with me through every step of ending my very bad previous 3-year relationship. He listened and always had comforting things to say. But more importantly, being with him for the past 6 months, I have learned what it is like to truly be loved, respected, and cared for. I love Kyle Lee Joseph Thayer with all my heart and soul.  Popping the question.....Kyle let it slip that he had bought my ring, the ring that I had happened to see while shopping with my best friend and the ring I fell in love with. I was very excited about him asking me, but assumed that it would take a lot more time. The next weekend I drove down to Columbia to spend a little time with him before we both had to go to separate sides of the state for work. As soon as I got through the door, he told me he had to ask me something. I assumed we were talking about where to eat that night, but was AMAZED to see him plop down on one knee, pull out that box and ask me to marry him. My reaction: giggle non-stop and nod. That was all I could manage. :)
