Four Months To Go

Four months until:
  • I put on my pretty dress
  • Get my hair washed and prettied
  • My makeup applied
  • I walk down the aisle with my dad
  • I marry the man who is going to be with me on the rest of my journey.

It's been hitting me lately that MJ is here for good. Yes, I understand the concept of marriage and I know it sounds silly but I have lived so much of my life in short bursts that the longevity of married life seems so far removed from what I know. Since I was a small child, I have moved around alot. Prior to college, I had lived in over 7 homes. Add in college and post grad, we are talking about over 19+ residences. I have always made new friends (and kept the old ones) but I lived a constantly changing single life which meant moving every 2-3 years.

Its funny when I see friends purchasing homes that they plan to reside in for long periods of time because honestly, I have never had that even as a child. I started giggling the other day when MJ and I bought a small table grill (a "for now" grill) until we move into a larger place. I realized that MJ and I would be together when we purchase our next grill for our new home together and it made me smile

He's my forever and my forever has never looked so good.
