Today, we began to pack up our apartment stuff.
I will be moving in wth someone, so we packed all the stuff that I will not be needing.
As you can imagine, I was fine when we first started to pack, but then I became very emotional. Everything that I looked at made me cry even more.
I cannot believe how fast things are happening. It seems like our wedding was just yesterday..... My mind is just racing and my nerves are shot.....
BUT, I just have to look at the bigger picture....
Our future is beginning. Our life is starting off. It may be a tough start, but I know that every tear that falls down my face will be worth it. Our journey is starting, and I couldn't be more excited.
I have so much to say, but no words to use.
I am going to miss my husband more than I could ever even imagine whenever he leaves for basic. But, my Jesus is going to give me the strength that I need to get through it. I am going to cry, wonder why, and be upset, but I am going to be OKAY. I know I am. I have a full support system surrounding me.
I have a loving husband who will be missing me just as much as I will be missing him. I will be on his mind just as much as I will be on his. His love for me is strong and unshakable, just like my love for him. This is going to make our relationship stronger. It is going to make our love unshakable. It is going to make us appreciate each other more than ever. This is going to be good for us. We both may be scared now, but this 8 1/2 will be a breeze because we have each other.
As the day of "see you later" approaches, I know I will cherish him and hold him every chance that I get.
I pray everyday that God will strengthen us and help us through it because we know the day is near.
To whoever reads this, I ask you, please, please keep my husband in your prayers and myself in your prayers. We are strong, but will need people to lean on.
Thank you.
Here's to the start of something new.
