The facts of life

My friends are getting married and having children and while I am so very happy for them I also get a ting of what's got to be jealousy. When I look on Facebook or Myspace and surf people's profiles I often come across classmates with diamond rings and babies on their hips, and even though I am so glad that I am able to go out and do whatever with my life I am still a little bit sad. I can see Miguel and me there, and I can see it being wonderful. I think that sometimes I get to wanting us to be there so bad, that I forget to stop and enjoy the "us" that we have now. This is a great "us". Here are a few of the things that make us so great:

• Personal jokes- they are the best, we can just go on and on joking about whatever. It can be the funniest thing to us and no one else would understand.
  
• Cuddle time (of course)
  
• We get along living together so great and with such ease while some couples can take a long time to get in sync with each other in that way.
  
• I love his friends; they are the type of people I would pick to be friends with myself.
  
• We might not finish each other's sentences, but only because we beat each other to the sentence. There are so many times that I go to say something and he spits it out before I can.
  
• We both love being active and doing different things. Hiking, biking, and camping with Miguel has become some of my most favorite times!
  
• He always pushes me in a way that I need, and I love him more and more for it every time.
  
• I never stop wanting to make him happy, to surprise him or make him laugh. I'll act in the stupidest ways and say the stupidest things because I know it will make him laugh.
  

So here's to stopping to smell the roses, they are gorgeous and pleasantly fragrant roses that I could smell for a long time!

Love,
