I realized that in the past month I have completely neglected my blog. And to the handful of people who actually read my blog -- I'm terribly sorry. Life in Utah has been crazy busy! I'm working full time, taking online classes, and training for a half marathon next month. Sheesh. Being a grown-up sucks.
Let me just start by saying IGNORE MY LAST POST COMPLETELY. I was hormonal, I had just got done watching the notebook and wanted someone to love me. hehe :) I am doing amazing. Waiting is honestly the hardest thing I've ever done, but it's also a piece of cake. My very loving heavenly father is blessing me more than ever. I am simply in love with life! Jake and I have strengthened our relationship leaps and bounds already. I absolutely love him with all of my heart, and I forever will.
I check the mail twice a day. It's a horrible, horrible habit. But once a week, usually between Thursday and Saturday, a handwritten letter makes it's way from San Antonio to my mailbox, and I get to sit out on the porch and just soak in his words. And that is enough. I used to be so worried that I would fall "out of love" with Jake because our only communication is through letters and emails. Oh, how wrong I was. I have only managed to fall deeper in love with the Christlike, wonderful man he is.
The transformation that I have seen Jake go through in less than 5 months is absolutely incredible. He is the most selfless, loving person. He's so strong. I am amazed at the man he is becoming. He exemplifies Christ in everything he does. Every time I'm upset or have a problem, he finds a scripture or something that makes me feel completely better. I am so lucky to have him!
