Piggy has a secret mission that can only be shared by a whisper.

This adventure to find Piggy took us up and down the Rideau Canal on our skates,
through the ice sculptures beautifully lit up, and to the Whispering Wall – a unique
statue by the Parliament buildings that amplifies a whisper so that you can here on the
other side of the curved wall about 20 feet away. (I had taken Chris to the Whispering
Wall last winter on a similarly cold crisp winter night.) He whispered into the wall “I love you”, with me listening at the other end. Then, instead of handing me another
page with picture clues to fill my book, he took a large poster tube out of his bag and
opened the lid, and out came Piggy and some red roses (now frozen, but a nice touch none
the less). Piggy’s feet were securely fastened with red ribbon suspending a little red
jewellery box. Unzipping his coat to reveal a nice shirt and tie that he was wearing,
he got down on one knee and asked me if I would marry him!... I said “Yes, absolutely”!
Then he proceeded to place a beautiful platinum solitaire ring on my finger, which was
hard to get on since it was so cold, but once on fit perfectly. What an adventure!
Personal and perfect!
... And they all lived happily ever after.
The End.
We are very thankful for all that God has done in our lives to shape us and bring us together, and for what He will continue to do through us as we venture into this new season of life together.
God Bless,
Michelle and Chris
