And there’s something about the word forever that sparks an idea in my head. In this instant, I know that I’m about to make a very, very bad decision. But I figure that after being the sister who carefully thought out every choice in her life, I’m due to make a colossally stupid one. And if nothing else, at least being willing to do anything for my family is consistent. Which is why I blurt out my totally absurd idea before I can think it through with my usual level of care. “Marry me.”
