I have an Aunt who is very proper and polite and creative and all sorts of other descriptive words that are escaping me right now. She's very clever and is always good for an interesting story or tidbit.
Today this Aunt came up to me and told me that she wasn't sure if she should say it or not but wished me congratulations on my engagement. I wasn't sure exactly what she meant when she said she wasn't sure if she should congratulate me or not. She said that she was told once that it wasn't appropriate to congratulate the Bride...as if she had done something spectacular by snagging a man; apparently some find it insulting. I have to smile, I feel pretty spectacular and I sure did snag a keeper. I'll totally take the Congratulations!
