things to look forward to...

i love my roommate and i love that she has found someone who is amazing for her! this march will be her and her boyfriends one year anniversary and one of the things she is making for him is a list of "365 ways i love you," and she just let me read what she had so far (265) and it is the cutest list ever!! some of the things on the list are pretty generic, but alot of them are very specific things that they have between them. little inside jokes, or memories, or things they like to do. its just really cute. i couldnt help but "aww"ing at a majority of the numbers on the list. she likes him so much and i know he feels the same for her. i remember last year when she told me about meeting him about them being cautions about starting a long distance relationship, and how they prayed together about it, and just hearing about it grow into the relationship they have now. i remember her reading me a list of 10 things she wants in a guy and realizing that he met 9/10 of those things (or some high percentage like that).

anyway, while i was reading her list, between all of the "aww's", i saw all of the stuff i have to look forward to. not every single one of those specifically (because like i said, alot were specific to them tw0), but those similar inside jokes, those similar 1st time experiences, those similar times together and things in common. and looking forward to them i am! i think that while being single i have grown alot and learned more about myself, which important. and maybe god has more growing and learning for me to do, so i will try to be patient, but when my time of waiting is over...i will be ready and looking forward to all of the love that is waiting to be given and received.

xoxo
