So Excited!!!

I was on my way to an event at the elementary school where I am student teaching and my brother came in with the mail. He tossed everything on the table and I saw a letter from Great Lakes. Immediately I dropped everything in my hands and ripped open the envelope... it was my first letter from my boyfriend who is at the Great Lakes Boot Camp!

He said that he wrote a letter everyday but they ripped them all up so he couldn't send them. He also says he is having a lot of fun... i'm telling you he loves getting worked like a dog. (I don't get it!)

I can't even describe the feeling I had when I was reading his letter, it was a mixture of sadness, optimism and love. Everyday that he is gone and my feelings grow stronger I know that this is the right thing to do and we are meant to be together. I support him in what he is doing and so very proud. I talk about him constantly, dream about him everynight and write him a letter everyday. I couldn't be happier (well, I would be if I could see him everyday) but I am so satisfied with him as a person that I am okay with not seeing him for long periods of time. I trust in him and how he feels about me and hopefully he trusts in me just as much. I know things will happen the way they were meant to be, so I am not worried....

His best friend and I are having dinner with his parents tomorrow. It is going to be nice to be in his house again; I might even grab another comfy sweatshirt from his closet! 

 Two weeks down, Seven to go.
