June 7 was the anniversary of our engagement. Chris was in Indiana, but he successfully had a poetical note and flowers secretly delivered to me that evening. The unexpected gift took me completely by surprise and definitely impressed me. He apparently didn't specify what type of flowers, but his collaborator happened to choose a dozen red roses, which happened to be significant in that the only other time Chris has given me a dozen roses was on our engagement. I thought it was a fitting way to remember that special day!
