Yea so it was time to mention MARRIAGE to our parents. We had many thoughts on them, whether we should graduate then get married or me transfer to Joplin and we would get married in the summer and finish school together. I wasn't surprised by our parents answers...pray about it. They supported us in what our decision may be, they gave some advice here and there about things. Financial issues needed to be looked over, whether we could handle the stress of working full time and going to school. We talked, talked and we did a little more talking about it and well we didn't come to a decision at all before we both to school for the fall.
Now as a girl this was very frustrating. I knew growing up that my ultimate dream was to get married (relatively young) and have a family. Realizing that that dream could be 8+ months away was unbearable at times. We were now back to our long distant relationship...
It was overly frustrating at times. We had cell phone issues, we got to the point where we hated even talking on the phone because all we really wanted was to be together. We would see each other about every 4-6 weeks depending on money! But at the same time we were spending a lot of time with our friends, consulting with them or just hanging out. We knew that there was a possibility we would have to leave our singleness (well you know what i mean) and I would be moving away from the life I knew as a girl on her own from the last 2+ years.
Come October 26th I came home and found a wonderful early birthday present...

I feel the cell phone frustrations. Our cell phones always seemed to drop calls, die or otherwise malfunction at the perfectly horrible times when we were missing each other terribly and just needed each other.
Yay for not having to only talk on the phone anymore!
and yay for posting again soon!
i love reading about your story!! keep it up!!
dude, sounds like we all understand the cell phone thing! there's ZERO signal in any building in the entire city of Ponca City...so when dale is home or at work, i can't get ahold of him...it has been so frusterating! My fear os that we'll go into labor and his cell is out of service so i can't get ahold of him in time...but God has a better plan, I'm hoping!
