it's a gettin' closer...





"Oh every day it's 'a getting closer
Going faster than a roller coaster. "
                       (James Taylor)




On my way back to school today, windows rolled down, my hair going crazy in the wind, pollen in my face (well, so it wasn't exactly picturesque..but hey, it's real life) i had a little James Taylor playing in the background and an old song of his was playing (another day). i was singing along thinking about the fabulous weekend with Daniel and realizing how every day we are closer to marriage. This weekend we celebrated his birthday and after sufficiently stuffing our faces with chocolate cake we talked about marriage and being excited to graduate and get married..all in the same year. Even though there is like tons to be done..there is this excitement about being able to come home to each other. To start something new, together. I wonder sometimes, if married life will be anything like we imagine. In ten years will we laugh at how differently things were from what we thought? Will we smile at how accurate we were? There is so much expectation and even more questions..and yet, there are days the excitement seems like it couldn't possibly grow any more.

Right around the corner from something big...
