An Open Letter to My Future Spouse

I just haven't meet you yet.

An Open Letter to My Future Spouse

Hey you,

I know we haven't met yet and honestly it's kind of weird writing this because well it is. Life is a whirlwind right now, but know that you are loved. Everyday you are prayed for and you are already cherished. A lot of times I get so impatient with waiting and I start to doubt that God has someone out there for me, but I know that in due time He will show me his plan. I've always heard that good things come to those who wait so I am hoping you are way cooler than me. Your jokes might not be as good as mine, but maybe you'll be able to make up for my lack of dancing abilities. It's kind of hard to say because I don't know you, but I know we make a good team. We fit. At first it might be kind of hard to navigate through each others quirks, but I know that before it's all said and done we will know each other better than we know ourselves.

It's so weird to say this out loud, but I think about our kids a lot. I think of what they might look like. Will they have curly hair like me? Will they have your laugh? Whose personality will they have or will it be a mixture of both? I wonder what kind of parents we will be. Will we be super over protective? Will we be the "cool" parents (are parents ever cool)? When will we let our kids have cell phones? I am thinking when they start driving because honestly they don't need one before then, I don't care what anyone says. What kind of sports will they play or will they hate sports? I just have so many questions that really can't be answered, but I pray everyday the Lord blesses me with children so I can hopefully raise them as well as my parents raised me.

I've thought a lot about our life together. I have prayed for you an endless amount- to be honest my whole family has. It's crazy to think that one day I will be going from the person who is actively trying to wait patiently for her spouse to pop up out of no where and then one day seeing you snuggled up with five (most likely not) puppies and four tiny humans. I'm not going to lie, life right now is so good. I love figuring out who I am and pursuing my relationship with Christ, but life will be so much sweeter with you in it. I can't wait to pursue Christ with you and then teach our kids how to do the same.

I pray that your life right now is good. I pray that people are showing you how special and cherished you are, but if that isn't the case maybe you're reading this right now. You are loved. You are cared for. You are prayed for.

Meet you so so soon,

Your future spouse.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
