Today I am going to visit my sister up near the Chicago area. I'm really excited because I get to see her and I haven't really hung out with her for a while! It's kinda a bummer though because that means I won't get any of my mail until wednesday. So hopefully I will have a lot of letters on Wednesday!!! I'm really excited because I get to go pick Kendall up on Friday morning at 6:00 am (or 0600..) ha I can not wait for that first hug! I have missed him so much! He told me that he will be able to call me tomorrow, however, usually when they tell him he can call they lie and decide that he actually won't get to call... kinda lame. But nonetheless I will have my phone glued to my side as it has been since he left.

Sometimes this whole thing is really hard. I miss him like crazy! I miss being able to share our lives with each other. I miss being able to talk to him everyday. I miss his hugs. When I am sad he knows exactly how to make things better. And so that is really hard. but there have also been some incredible things too. God has worked in both our lives in incredible ways and he is just continuing to work! Kendall and I became Christians about a month and a half ago and life has not been the same. Christ is what keeps us going. We have learned that we need to rely on him in everything! and that we can not do this alone. I know I would be incredibly depressed had I had to do this all alone. This whole experience has also made me feel closer to kendall is a different way. Like we are growing closer to God and therefore he is growing us closer to each other. I love it :)

Well I need to hit the road to go see my sister!
