I’m Bold! The bravest thing I’ve done lately is decide to have our first baby – I’m 14 weeks along and scared to death/ecstatic. But it still feels pretty brave to finally make that giant step forward.
Paul says
I’m Bold!
I planned a huge surprise trip to propose…
When I unexpectedly picked her up from a violin lesson, she asked “where are we going to lunch?” When she figured out we were headed to the airport she asked, “Who are we going to pick up?”
When we pulled into long term parking it still hadn’t sunk in that we were going anywhere…
When we arrived at our destination and we noticed limo drivers waiting for clients, we talked about how crazy that would be to get picked up by a limo… but sure enough we did!
The trip unfolded with a romantic meal and a Rascal Faltts concert (her favorite group)and sight seeing… it wasn’t until the last possible moment (when she had decided there would be no proposal) that I popped the question.

I’M BOLD!
My boyfriend and I are moving from a fifth floor condo in the city to a four bedroom house on nine acres in the country–in snowy New York State. It’s a pretty bold move for two people who are used to having all the usual conveniences within a very short walking or driving distance, but we’re ready for the peace and quiet!

Lara says
I’m bold!
The night of my first date with my now-husband, I invited him to stay the night, since my parents had a spare bedroom and he needed a place to sleep. I barely knew him, but it turned out to be a huge blessing in disguise. I never would have kept in touch with him or fallen in love with him, otherwise! (perhaps not THE boldest thing I’ve done, but definitely the one I’m most thankful for, ha)
