This & That

Even though school started back up just yesterday, I am SUPER busy! However, I do have enough time for a quickie blog post.

I don't know why I was thinking about this the other night, but I am extremely grateful Colby is not in the Army, Military, etc. Its not that I don't appreciate what those men do for us, because I definitely do, I'm just glad Colby isn't one of those guys. I can't even begin to imagine how hard it is for women out there who never know where their husbands are and don't know when they'll even get a chance to talk to them again. That takes a special kind of courage that no one wants to have to possess. And imagine if the women had children- how hard that would be! Half of the time it would be as if you weren't even married at all! I'm just so blessed that I have a fiance' that I get to be with everyday. Other women are blessed to be able to say "My husband is the reason you have freedom."

The other night I had such a crazy vivid dream about our wedding. I'm not going to go into detail, but it was quite the wedding! When I woke up and got to thinking about it, I realized that even though it is in January, its coming up so fast! And I CAN NOT wait!! Sometimes just thinking about it brings a tear to my eye, but just about anything and everything does that! Not only can I not wait for our wedding, I can't wait for our marriage either. Mrs. Pierce. I must say, when I write it in cursive my soon-to-be new name looks pretty snazzy. I'm so lucky to have found the person God made specifically for me. These days people throw marriage and love around like its replaceable. And although divorce and remarriage are options, we should not think like that. People need to go into marriage thinking "This is it" and not "If it doesn't work out, life goes on." I'm proud to say Colby is the only man I have loved, and the only man I will love. In a romantic way of course.

I wish I had more to write about than Colby today, but the only other thing occupying my mind right now is how much school work I have, & you don't want to hear about that.
