It looks a lot more mature than mine. All matching and put together. I blush thinking about how Bellamy saw my rainbow mish–mash of comfort items. But I don’t have time to be embarrassed for long as Megan continues with my tour. Megan and I are sitting in the kitchen eating sandwiches when Bellamy shows up again. Aaron is with him this time. He informs me that Aaron will drive me home and then to work once I am ready. I agree, hug Megan goodbye and promise to text her later so we can properly make our plans for getting ready for the engagement party Saturday.
