The Supporters

There wouldn't be a strong foundation without awesome supporters behind our relationship. Throughout our relationship there have been a select few women who have never given up hope and never lacked in support of us working together to create something amazing. Yesterday was just one of the many days when I knew we had a great backing. We talked about the wedding, the who's, what's, when's, and all. We looked at rings for you, we spoke about the great things that are to come in our future, and were overall filled with love, joy, and laughter. It's easy to hear people say our love gives others hope, but yesterday really showed me just how great of role models we actually are becoming. In times of doubt, people look to us for comfort. They say they've given up hope, and then realize love does exist when they see us. They make sure to not settle for less than what we've given each other, and even though that puts tons of pressure on us, it's a great feeling knowing what we have really means something. We have a purpose. We love, support, care, value, and comfort each other in our times of need. Marc has always been my backbone, and has always supported others without hesitation. If he can help, he's there. If he can guide, he'll lead. He never lets people down, and you don't find that very often. I remember he told me a couple years ago that if people did even half of what they said they'd do, things would be so much easier. To be honest, I feel like Marc does everything he says he's going to do. If he says he'll take care of you, even when things get rough he isn't kidding. Someone like that deserves the world and more. If I can't give you the world, I'd like to try to give you what you give the world. And with this group of girls, I hope with us all combined, we are able to give you half of what you give us. On top of the amazing women in your family, you now have us until the end.

With love always,
Becca

P.s. This is what the girls looked like when they found out they were bridesmaids. Oh the tears of joy <3

So close! We are so close to the end of the month. We've almost made it. I will finally have time off, and won't be as tired as I've been. Thank you love for sticking with me this month. I know it's been hard. With all of my sleepiness and staying on campus to get work done, even when we see each other, I feel like it lasts for just a few moments. There is also something super exciting about seeing our diplomas next to each other. For two, first-generation college students, we sure have done well for ourselves. Teamwork makes the dream work right?? I think so! It definitely helps to have a superstar on the team anyway. And by superstar, I mean Mr. Do-It-All-Himself-Colón. Thank you for being such a great teammate! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. I still don't know why you don't complain about the accent mark!

Sometimes we see, read, or hear things that we try to get across. For me lately, I've been trying to get across what young love means, and the beauty of it. Today, I came across another blog, where someone worded it in simplest form. Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you Anonymous, I couldn't have said it better myself. " The question is asked: “Is there anything more beautiful in life than a young couple clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?” And the answer is given: “Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. "It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled but still clasped; their faces are seamed but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired but still strong with love and devotion. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love.” " With love always, Becca Colón P

Exactly one year ago today. The time has truly flown by. I've posted this video a few times before, but we're finally at it's anniversary. What a year it has been love! Crazy, to say the least. We legit spent majority of our first year together apart. It's okay though, we made it back to where we need to be. I love you bub! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. Looks just like Rachel from Suits haha.
