5QF - Valentine's Style!

Mama M. at Five Crooked Halos has posted her questions, so if you want to play along at Five Question Friday click here and the link will wisk you away to her blog, where you can learn all about how to play and join the blog hop! If you don't want to play, that's okay, too - it's fun to read everyone's answers...you can always let me know your answers by commenting! :)

1. What is the one thing your love does for you that you can't live without?
I am not a numbers person - and he is SO GOOD with numbers! He tells me how much I have to spend each week - and I'm good with that. I don't have to stress over all the bill paying - Thank God!

2. When did you know your love was "the one"?
He was really creative. We worked together, so he had to be sneaky. He gave me a note with a purchase order that said "Will you go out with me Thursday night?" There was a little teeny box that said "NO" and a big box that "YES" with instructions to check one. I said I couldn't because I had plans. But, he kept getting more and more creative. I knew he was willing to do what it took. I knew early on that he was the one!

3. Does your love have a special ringtone on your cell?
Listen - my son has changed my ringtone to his (my teenage son's voice) yelling "Mom! Phone's for you!" and I cannot figure out how to change the tone to something else. Well, if I putzed with it enough I PROBABLY could, but it would take forever...and, now that I can hear my ringtone over everyone else's (what mom can't pick their kid's voice out of a crowd???), I never miss a call. But, I'm not a techie, so that's the long answer.

Short answer...No.

4. What are you attracted to most in your special someone?
Integrity. Honesty. Sense of humor. (If you're talking physical - eyes, smile)

5. Did you know when/where he/she was going to pop the big question? No. It snuck up on us. We were only dating a few months and we were in an ice cream shop. We ordered the monkey sundaes. They came with orange plastic monkeys on the spoons. He took his monkey and got down on one knee and said, "With this monkey, I'd like to ask you to marry me." We laughed, but saved them - those are our engagement monkeys. After that, we bought an engagement ring - but we eloped, so it was a secret and we put the ring in a security box at the bank until our wedding date.
