A Forever Thing


          It's crazy to think today is day #5 of waking up as a wife, and day #4 of waking up in my new home. It has become so natural so quick, I couldn't be happier. Marc and I have already created a sort of routine so I'm excited about that too. I never thought I'd be excited to wake up when my husband did as he got ready for work and for me to go downstairs to let out the dog. It might be early and whoever is a negative nelly will say it will ware off, but I see this lasting with excitement for a long time. I get to lay down on the living room sofa, typing up our daily blog, and Marc tells me how tired he is making his long journey to work and can't wait to come back home. His family may be leaving in a few days, but having them around lately has been a blast. Yesterday we took a road trip, and it was definitely something new for all of us. I enjoyed having a long day with his family and my sister, only one thing could have made it better and that would have been to have Marc with us. I made sure to take pictures because I didn't want him to feel left out (I'm sorry babe, I still have to actually show you the pictures, but I have them!). As we made our way back, we decided to hang out around Marc's job to wait for him. That's when my real excitement started to build. It's weird because I go weeks without seeing Marc up at school, but when I'm here in Philly, just him going to work feels like a lifetime. When he finally arrived we were all able to laugh and partake in deciding who was funnier as we racked up the laughs between Marc and I (but we all know I'm the funny one in our relationship ;) ) I love making Marc laugh, and him me. It helps balance out our days of struggle. I'm dreading having to leave in about a week, and already pumped for the next time I come back home. I'll repeat it over and over again, five more months, and then the week I have lived this past week with be a forever thing.

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. I'm really starting to enjoy typing my new last name <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.
