The Royal Announcement

I am very excited about today's announcement that Prince William is engaged to Kate Middleton. I am a royal watcher from way back. Yes, I got up very early in the morning to watch all the pomp and circumstance around the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana. If I can possibly manage it, I will do the same for this one. But, before that there will be much hype, and I will drink it all in. Starting with the fact that he gave her Diana's engagement ring. Now, no woman wants to wear another woman's ring...unless...it was his mother's. That is very romantic, in my book.
