The Eve to the Eve


          It's not even New Years Eve and I'm already freaking out. Not because of the actual new year, but because I want to create an amazing one for Marc and his family. This will be my first full year as part of their family, and tomorrow night I'm playing hostess for the party coming into the new year, no pressure. I've felt like part of the family since I've met all of them, but now it's real. They will no longer just have Marc in their lives, but me as well, and for my family the reverse. If you've read previous blogs, you know how much I love to impress Marc. This party is going to be a chance to do so. Bits and pieces of our families have come together at times, but tomorrow, the whole gang will be here. So, it is my challenge to make it great for Marc's family, my family, and most importantly Marc. We are all so blessed and lucky to have each other in our lives, it's so hard to describe all the reflecting that has been done this year. Good and bad, we made it, and we made it together. Number one thing about being a hostess, is setting the environment. I'm opening up my arms, warm heart, and home to people whom I love, and looking forward to seeing a smile on every one of their faces. I know you guys are probably thinking,"Chill out Becca, they're family, they'll love it", and I'm sure of that. But when it comes to Marc, I want things to be magical for him. He deserves everything and more. It might only be a New Years party, but it's one with our families coming together, and that is a big deal. Off I go to make last minute preparations and hoping Marc has a great day at work today!

With love always,
Becca Colón

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.
