I lie to myself often telling myself it's not as hard as the last time, but it is.
Nick is off to school for his third year at NDSU as an architecture student. When I sent him off this morning, it was 47 degrees and raining heavily. The weather conditions certainly didn't help hold back the tears.
As much as I hate it, our past two years of being apart have brought forth so much fruit. As individuals we have met new depths spiritually, we've made other friends, and we've learned that technology is seriously a blessing. As a couple, we have loved each other more deeply and more uniquely than we ever would have if we weren't long distance.
My confident expectation is that this will never end cause it's seriously so good. Like outta this world good.
This is my prayer for this next season:
We would share our sufferings and comforts with Christ, other friendships would bloom, and that we continue to learn how to better love.
