The engagement. (Wasn't what I had HOPED, but it was pretty spectacular nonetheless...)

Today, Sasha decided to put a ring on it.  (Oh sure, she's five years old and was trying to dig herself out a DEEP, DARK hole she had been digging since her arrival at school...but those are minor details...)

She ran up to me during reading centers and yelled, "HERE!  PUT THIS RING ON! I made is just for you.......am I being good now???"  

(She has such a way with words).

I was speechless.   And while I eventually returned it and told her to put it back with the rest of the PlayDoh during clean-up time, I have to say that it was the most maginificant proposal ever.   

(And it served it's purpose...she was golden the rest of the day...)
