I can't believe that one week from tonight, I'll be saying "see you later" to my best friend. It's really starting to hit me. For a while I'd just been excited to start spring break and be with Jared again. But now that spring break has started and we've spent time together, I'm finally starting to realize how quickly time is going. You'd think that I'd already know this since I've said goodbye to a missionary before. A little over two years ago actually.. But the thing is, It's totally different this time. I don't know how to explain it. I just know, this time is different. He's different :) Different than anyone I've ever known.
It's 1:57am and I just got done watching The Bachelor finale. I know this is going to sound super cheesy, but just watching Sean pick Catherine and everything that happened, just makes me see how Jared seriously is the one for me. I used to watch shows like that and think, "Aw, they're so in love. I want a guy like that." I can honestly say, I have someone BETTER than that. I have a relationship BETTER than that. I was never able to say that before :) He's truly my best friend. He's my rock and anchor in this crazy life. He's the person I want to spend every day with. He loves me unconditionally and shows me in a million ways every day. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. I could go on and on.
In the lyrics of our song it says, "When God made you, he must have been thinking about me." Those lyrics could not be any more true. He's the one. I just know it :) Now gone are all my questions about why, and I've never been so sure of anything in my life :)
(our song = When God Made You - Newsong ft. Natalie Grant)
Hey girl, another few songs I enjoyed when Brady left and when he was coming home are:
ReplyDeleteSomehow Somewhere by Michael W. Smith (or it's Somewhere Somehow)
Think of Me by Mark Schultz
I'm right behind you in supporting you. Good luck girly, I could never wait again, but I believe in you when you say it's different this time. You know if it's meant to be, it will. I'm rooting for you two!
You guys are really super adorable <3 I LOVE your blog so much! It's so fun to read and kinda try and relate, even though I'm only 17. My missionary left at the end of January. I just wanted to say THANK YOU for having this blog and keeping up with it, it's definitely helped a lot to remind me I'm NOT the only one :) I even decided to start my only little MG blog. It's not as great as yours, but I did steal some ideas, I hope you don't mind!
ReplyDeleteMy missionary leaves tomorrow. Tonight was my last night seeing him. It's so hard. But so worth it. Hope everything goes well. You guys are so cute.
