A Prayer For My Future Husband

Actually, people should probably pray for you because you're going to be stuck with me.

A Prayer For My Future Husband
Heather Jones

We all plan it out, whether we admit it or not. We plan out every detail from the dress to who our maid-of-honor will be. Most of us have planned our perfect day out since we were kids on the playground. We always promised our best friend they could be there for our special day and we got starry-eyed at the thought of it. We already have our venue in mind and the colors that will fill the room, or the song we will dance to that will always be "our song". The one thing we don't think about; the groom. It's the one thing we can't plan or promise. We can hope or dream, but what if that falls through or doesn't pan out like you thought it would. We have all thought or dreamed of the one, but he's the one variable that isn't definite. We all pray for the guy we hope is in our future, but what do we pray? Do we pray that he looks good, or that he is a doctor or an engineer? Do we hope that he has the same dreams as our own? This is my prayer for my future husband.

I pray that I'm everything you prayed for. I pray that you always thought of me in making life decisions or when you lost the "girl of your dreams", or at least what you thought were your dreams. I pray that you pray for me and my life and our future together. I pray that you never lose sight of God and that He influences your daily life and thoughts. I pray that you are there for me when I need you the most and I promise to do the same. I hope you are everything you wanted to be in life and that you're happy with your journey to this point. I pray that when we cross paths that you see me as the girl you waited on. I pray that you have goals in life and that you strive to reach them everyday. I also hope that you remember my goals in our future and strive to help me reach them everyday. I pray that you look at me like you look at the stars and you never stop trying to name them all; you never stop falling in love with me. I hope that you are ready to take on my past and baggage and make me forget that I even had a life before you. I pray that you pray for my future and my present situations. I hope you don't regret anything in life and wake up every morning thankful. I pray that you love coffee and nineties music just as much as I do and you don't mind that smell and sound throughout our future home. I hope that you want as many kids as I do and that you help me raise them in God and love. I hope you love your family and respect your dad and adore your mom. I pray that you are ready for our journey together and our future life and all the memories to come.

You may already be in my life and if you are, then I pray that you stay. If you haven't made your way to me yet; that's ok too, because I will be here waiting for you when everything else is dark. I pray that you are everything I prayed and hoped for.

Love, Your future wife

(P.S. I'll go ahead and apologize for the mess; I'm not good at cleaning house and also I'm probably going to put up Christmas decorations way too early)

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.
