wow!!! today was such a wonderful day-i had an early morning shift at Friedman's where i Made a sales total of $1.03!!!!!!!! woo hoo!!! jk I was just thankful that one customer came in! :) anyhow, then i got to go see my darlin at work in the woods! I was so thankful to do that, because the reality of school starting back up is hitting my head and heart again. I am soo thankful that Levi and I are able to finish school, but these breaks and consecutive days together are like a wonderful yet rapid tease!
I miss him sooo much when he leaves to go to work on a daily basis, so you can imagine how i feel when he loads up to go to tifton again 4 hours away. :( He is the first person I want to share when something good happens, and the first person I want to cry to when something goes wrong. He is my best friend, my partner, and the man that i want to grow old with. I always prayed for God to send me someone amazing, but like i told my darlin the other day, (like always) God thankfully well exceeded my expectations when He sent Levi into my life. When i am away from him i literally feel like half of me is missing, and my body, heart, and mind don't reconnect until I hear his voice or I am wrapped up in his arms smiling! I always tell him that in my hearts and thoughts, God comes first and then its him. This is a point i always reiterate because that is something that my mama has always taught me...GOD is the only person you cannot live without, and HE is who allows us to embrace all of lives many wonderful blessings! We're sitting here on the couch together and he asleep, his body doing that crazy twitching business that signifies he is OUT! lol I look at him and thank God for such an amazing man, and for me being able to sit next to him and watch him sleep...

When i look at this picture, i not only feel BLESSED beyond belief, but i feel proud and so unbelivabley thankful. I remember those many long hard days of longing just to hear him call my name, or even just to get a 5 second glimpse of his face in person. I feel thankful to honestly know that whatever comes my way or wherever life takes us, God has sent us to eachother and that will always be enough. This picture was taken after his boot camp, and I had to go 3 months ahhh! without seeing his face or hearing his voice. It is memories like this that make lifes struggles and difficult "time teases together" seam manageable and well worth it.
God is such an amazing provider to me :)

Wow - Levi looks so tired, yet so happy. That is a great picture - a treasure.
I love you both!
How I remember the moment this picture was taken! I remember when they were allowed to leave their platoon to find their family, the moment I finally made eye contact with him, and having to patiently wade through the sea of people between me and him.
