Ant and I are getting married in about 2 months, so while he is in the hopsital again for a collapsed lung, and I cannot sleep cause our bed is lonely, I read the entries from our past. Upon reading them, I thought to myself, this is probably not a good idea. I would most likely find things from other areas of our lives before eachother that would make me anxious. After reading them, I am surprisingly not feeling so. It makes me smile about our crazy times when we were first getting to know eachother. Like our first "date" where he drove me literally around my block. Or our crazy late night drives that really kept me sane from my crazy family. It makes me smile with all of the little inside jokes that come with those times. Like the men in the mask, off roading in the saturn, and those little mints that would make your eyes water. I know that I am the only one that will read this, but it makes me feel that much more sure of my decision. I sometimes wonder if I should start feeling cold feetish, but I know that I have made the right decision and that there is no need to be nervous. I'm reading the Time Traveler's Wife and it is all about how these two are brought together and their whole lives are built around eachother and have already happened. Our relationship makes me feel that way. I'm such a sap. I'm probably getting tired lol. Another thing that this look into the past has made me realize is how lucky I am to be in a relationship that grows for each of us equally. We are in it for the long haul together.
M.B. You are my best friend; I have never been so sure of anything in my life, and I cannot wait to begin our life together. I love you, thank you for loving me.
