In an incredible display of adorable creativity, redditor ppaul9 wrote a children’s book about his relationship with his girlfriend in order to propose to her. After having it illustrated and printed, he worked with a covert photographer who stuck the book in the kids section of their local library and then waited behind some shelves to document the proposal. While they were on a date, the couple stopped at the library to return some books and check out some more for the girlfriend’s nieces and nephews. The boyfriend pulled out his book, told her it looked like a good one, and asked her to read it to him.

The Story
That fell for a giraffe.
She surprised him by how much
She could make him laugh.
Were from different worlds
Their first date, so nervous,
He’d certainly hurl.
It was love at first sight.
His feelings grew quickly,
His heart took to flight.
Unpolished and scattered
Now refined and focused
On those things that matter.
For how lucky he’d gotten.
Without her by his side
Life would surely be rotten.
Just how happy they were.
He could not imagine
Even one day without her.
And uttered the plea:
“My dearest giraffe,
Will you marry me?”
Right out of his chest.
He could do nothing but wait
And hope she’d say YES.
He could not stop grinning
Because he knew, in his heart,
This was just The Beginning!
