First Day

So this is the first day I haven't seen you since we got engaged, a day off from wedding talk...yeah, right, like that actually happened. We're going to Chicago tomorrow. I'm talking to you now about halls and such. Planning one day before planning the rest of my life with you.

In light of not seeing you, I feel like I want to tell you some of the things I love about you when I do get to see you. I love how when we stand and kiss that you get on your tiptoes and move into me, how even with my eyes close I can feel your smile and your heart take a relaxed sigh. I love how when I come up behind you and put my arms around you that you let out this quick giggle. I love to watch you think, how you put your hands on your hips and your eyes dance back and forth until you figure it out. And how sometimes when you're excited, that you bounce around across a room like you must've when you were a little girl. You are contagious and addictive. You are mine and I love you.

Your hand in mine, we move forward towards the unknown in faith, knowing that God has put us together and that He will guide us on our path, our life together.
