In my day, if you were dating someone, that's who you were going to prom with. There was no formal invitation, no pomp and circumstance. Just a quick conversation on how we'd split the cost of tickets and dinner. Oh, and another quick conversation confirming the color of the dress and the coordinating cummerbund.
But today, that's not the case. The more outrageous and creative you are in popping the "Will you go to Prom with me?" question, the more brownie points you get. And that applies whether you've been dating for a day, a month or a year. No expense is spared, nerves are shaky and you hope she says yes. Even if you've been dating since Kindergarten.
Thankfully, we've raised a sweet, romantic and realitvely shy son. He had no interest in renting the jumbotron at the Reds game or hiring a sky writer. He was simple and sweet. Although he did spent a long time in the back of Build a Bear trying to record the perfect message!
And this was her response :D Way to go, Will!
