Well hey there, future husband.

The truth is, I've been wondering quite a lot about you lately.

It certainly isn't unusual for me to constantly ponder the answers to questions such as:

What will you look like?

What will you sound like?

And, of course, when are our paths finally going to cross so that I can adore the heck out of you?

While it is true that I haven't met you yet, there are some qualities that I already know I'm going to love about you.

I've decided to incorporate 6 of them into this article.

Maybe one day we'll read this together and end up laughing at how accurate it is at describing you and all of your loveliness:

1. You put God first.

I love the fact that God is just naturally a part of you, and that everyone else around you (including our children) can see that.

You never fail to teach me and our kids more about Him every day, and I can't get enough of how easy and fun you make it for all of us.

2. You're calm and patient even under the most extreme circumstances.

You're honestly the most affectionate man I've ever known, and I continue to be amazed by how often you share that quality with me and our kids.

I love that you constantly remind and encourage them to talk with you about absolutely anything, and the fact that they never have to fear being judged or criticized by you if they do.

Your arms are always open to them, and you're totally okay with listening to them rant about all of the same problems and stories that you've heard over a thousand times already.

The best part is, you somehow manage to stay calm and patient through it all (and that's something I really do appreciate).

3. You remind me and our children of our worth even when we can't see it for ourselves.

All of us have days where we feel unconfident and forget just how much we matter in this world and to those around us.

Regardless, you never hesitate to find the perfect words to say in order to lift us up again and remind us that we are worth so much more than we think.

4. You're accepting of everyone and teach our kids to do the same.

I want our kids to get along with and be respectful of everyone they meet, and I'm so thankful I found you to show them how to do it.

5. You value even the simplest of blessings and teach our kids to do the same. 

media.giphy.com

We may not be the richest people in the world, but you show our kids to appreciate even the simplest of blessings.

Thanks to you, I get to watch them grow into individuals of respectable character every day, and it truly is a beautiful sight to see!

6. You understand how I'm feeling without me having to say anything at all. 

media.giphy.com

It's almost creepy, but I love it. I don't have to explain what I'm feeling or why I'm feeling it.

You just get all of that without me even having to say a word.

I love you, sweetheart.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
