where your heart lies.
nick and i will have been together one year tomorrow. i'm so grateful for all the security and warmth he gives me, and how open, direct and honest we are with each other and have been from the very beginning. we were together practically from the first night we met, and according to him he already considered me "his" from that first night.
he saw a picture i have framed on one of my bookshelves the other night of mom, daddy, lauren, and him and me from a few months ago, and he told me how happy that made him. he's my family too.
saturday, after he gets off work, we're driving down to myrtle beach and meeting up with one of nick's friends from the navy and his wife. his friend left the ship about five months before nick did, so its been over a year and a half since they've seen each other. it's cute, he's excited - and i'm excited too, because i don't get to meet his friends and family often since they're so spread out. some of his friends are still in the navy, stationed in japan or underway god knows where, and his family lives in colorado, tennessee, jersey. i love seeing him light up and smile so much like he does when he's with his mom or someone he doesn't see often.
and i can't wait to be at the ocean. i don't care about the sun or how warm it might be; i just love seeing the low, flat horizon and all that water. i think nick does too, especially since he's not seeing it from a big naval ship. the last time we were at the beach was in march, and the very first night he dreamt about being back on the ship. i'm glad he woke up with me and not in his cold steele rack.
i sleep better than i used to.
