The first thing I found out yesterday was that my boyfriend's older brother is now engaged. I think this might be the first time in my life so far that I have been legitmately excited to hear news like this and that I am actually looking forward to a wedding. I'm not insensitive, but they all feel the same to me. I'm not one of those girls who has her dream wedding all planned out, and has since age five, but I am of course looking forward to my own ceremony someday; I just don't want it to be the same-old, same-old.
Peter and Sam's engagement is not a real shocker, though from what I've heard from Dan they did a good job keeping the secret. I can't wait to see them both and congratulate them personally. I've never really gotten close to any of my past boyfriend's siblings before and all of this really made me reflect on the time I have gotten to spend with Peter. I think that it is important to be liked by family of a significant other and I really couldn't feel more at home than I do now with Dan's family. His brother is always supporting my desire to move to Toronto and he'll make comments all the time about Dan moving with me. He took me out to dinner when I went to visit him in New Orleans last Spring due to Dan's ten hour flight delay in Chicago. It's just a tad bit scary to write this, but I really do hope that I will be a part of their close knit family someday. I don't plan ahead, but I do cross my fingers.
