Thirty three

Spending weekends at our new home, feeling that old tug at the base of my being when I must say the inevitable goodbye. It has not dulled since. And however much we try to protract and prolong the time, it always ends up being far too short... All that will be over soon. We’ll be shifting gears into our new normal: wave goodbye to long distance in the rear view baby! The wait of 1,455 days will have finally been worth it. 

We approach the day quicker now, and the feeling that comes to me whenever I have the smallest moment to stop and think is almost the same as the days before my graduation. Our big ceremony nears us, I am excitedly anticipating whatever it is that day will be. Will feel like. I feel already like it is dawn and we are waking early, before light, groggy- hungover even- to drive out and see the sunrise again. Yes my love, this is what our wedding day feels like today.
