Today is March 11, 2012. In exactly one month, it will be April 11, 2012, the day Matt leaves for two years. That little thought puts a bit of a damper on my mood. Our time is running out.
But I also know that those two years will be so good for both of us. My birthday was this past week, so we celebrated in Orem this weekend. On Saturday we went shopping to complete the cutest outfit in the world and then had lunch at The Old Spaghetti Factory. She told me about one of her friends from work who went through the same thing I will be going through in exactly a month. My mom told me that this lady said it was the hardest thing she has ever done, but that it was one of the best things she had ever done. The lady realized so many things about her missionary (now husband) that she loved about him because she dated other people. They wrote to each other and their friendship grew stronger because they were sharing experiences with each other. He came home and they eventually got married.
Today is March 11, 2012, and in exactly one month, things will be harder than they are now. But about 2 years and one month from today, my life, mine and Matt's life, will be how God wants it to be. We will be the versions of ourselves that God intended us to be for each other.
I'll give you more details on the wonderful weekend another day, probably when my mood is brighter.
