warm & happy thoughts
With less than three months until the wedding, I wanted to take a quick moment -- between packing up the kitchen, doing laundry, and watching Law & Order on repeat -- to share with you all (more for documentation's sake than your own) how much I appreciate my fiance. I'm not usually very publicly mushy-gushy with him and talk about all of the many many sweet things he does (and I'm not about to go into detail, no worries), but I really had to talk about how much he rules. I follow many wedding blogs (though I don't usually contribute -- I can't really seem to get into that whole aspect of wedding planning) and a lot of the brides gripe about their fiances' lack of interest in the wedding and/or the marriage. Jonathan has been checking off so many things from our wedding "to-do" list: it's my fiance who found our wedding venue, photographer, caterer, hotel for guests, the magistrate who'll marry us... While I was in school and waking up at 5:30am for clinical days, he was making phone calls, never griping, always pushing forward. I think only once at the very beginning did I truly have to ask him to do something, and it was so insignificant that I don't even remember what it is now. It's Jonathan who makes our many spreadsheets, who helps me look up honeymoon destinations, who punches holes in paper until he can't keep his eyes open any longer, who comforts me when I'm to a breaking point (that was months ago), who reminds us to work through our planning for marriage workbook. He e-mails me and texts me throughout the day with updates, deals with my insane moments and still manages to tell me how much he loves me. I'm so blessed to have met Jonathan, to have such a reliable and loyal best friend, to be marrying the man of my dreams.
