God Gave Me You ♥

So today I am in need of a reminder of why I love my missionary so much. You know when you just love something because you love it? Well that is how I feel with Mark sometimes and it is so great. Let me explain, there is just something about this man that makes me feel so good inside on a daily basis. Even though he is thousands of miles away I still can feel my connection with him. The best feeling in the world is to know that I have a best friend, boyfriend and true love that are all the same person. Sometimes I just find myself dazing off to old times where he and I had a total blast together. We were not only happy together, we were real and that's what made it so special. Mark and I kept a journal together for about two years before he left on his mission filled with all our adventures and memories. I love to go back and read what we did and how I felt. I am so blessed to have this man in my life and for the relationship he and I share together. Last Tuesday I went on a date here in Rock Springs with a soccer player. It was probably my first official blind date and it totally reassured me that Mark is the one for me. My date went well but I just was not interested in what the guy had to offer me, he was a returned missionary from Argentina and a total stud but something just wasn't there. It was one of those dates where you wonder when in the world you will be taken home. I am so grateful for the chance that I have to date while my missionary is gone but I am more grateful that those dates reassure me that much more on Mark. I have really enjoyed reading letters from Mark and getting to know him all over again. The other night I was reading a letter from June and found myself totally cracking up over something that he had said.

Life is a wonderful Journey and it will be even better when I get to spend it with my man.
