dear life,

right now i really love you.

actually, right now my eyes are really heavy

and my brain is really slow moving

so right now you are a little bleary-eyed.

but other than that, you are awesome.

because i finally got to see my family

in my new stomping grounds

and show off my hotter than hott boyfriend

who i love more than a billion reeses cups

or a thousand peaunut butter and honey sandwiches

or 12 cases of diet coke

ok well more than anything really...

and my family got to see that love in person.

and see how wonderful he treats me

and really experience my happiness.

and its because you let me have amazing friends

that make me laugh until my back hurts

and i have to sit down to catch my breath

and its because you help me remember how important little adventures are

and enjoying the small things is like, the best thing ever.

like sunday night adventures with morgface

and being able to notice all those little things he does for me

and listen to story after wonderful story from his (dominican republic) mission

and begin again to get so giddy over planning

the amazing things we will do there in 2.5 months.

and though maybe my alarm clock didn't go off this morning,

life, i'm so effin happy that i can sit here and remember those

amazing moments

and revel in them again, and again.

love,

me.
