me: Sarah Primrose Hughes {20}
him: Amos Oliver Fairfax {20}
Amos and I have known each other since before I can remember. Our fathers both work at the shipyard together as supervisors and our mothers are like sisters. We have always been close friends but it wasn't until we turned 18 and Amos was about to leave on an apprenticeship for a year that we both realized we were in love.
It was difficult to be away from Amos for a year and the letter writing was frustrating and tedious most of the time, but when he came home after that year, we were even more deeply in love.
After being home for four months, Amos proposed to me and I accepted. We are to be married in two weeks when the circuit pastor that married my parents comes into town.
