His family was already there with my kid when my wife, son, his girlfriend and I arrived. My daughter was extremely surprised to see us and asked us what we were doing there. Then her boyfriend took out a little box, opened it and asked her to marry him. After a minute or two of trying to deal with her shock she finally said yes. I have never seen her so happy. I had tears in my eyes for the first time since adding bran to my diet.
I never came close to shedding a tear over anything related to my kid's sports. But I'm apparently too weak to cope with any dignity when seeing my tiny fragile snowflake so happy about something that matters more than any home run she ever hit.

Thanks for the update and the perspective it provides. Congrats and best wishes to the couple.
For the sake of the rest of us, ditch the bran!
