What My Dog and Husband Have in Common


          Where in the world am I going with this one, right? Let me show you. I've had Herky two years longer than I've known Marc and I don't think I could live without either of them. They both had me hooked from the start and once I laid eyes on them, I knew they would both eventually be mine. There's nothing like coming home to a happy boy who just wants his tummy rubbed by me (both dog and husband that is). Or to see an eager face that just wants to be in my company. Or to have a love bug that just wants to cuddle all day. They say a dog is a man's best friend and we as humans are lucky to have dogs. A lot of people say that of husbands as well. Usually in a joking manner, but for me, never. I never have to imagine a perfect world when I have both Herky and Marc in my company because I'm already in it. You know how in the movies you see the guy and girl holding hands strolling through a random park with their dog running ahead chasing whatever smell it is they smell? That's how I imagine our lives. We may never actually do that, but it's the emotion that I am trying to get you to understand. Right now I may only have one of my guys with me, but we'll all be together permanently in exactly 12 weeks! Crazy, the end of this dragging long distance relationship is finally in sight. We will live our happy lives together. Man, woman, and dog. Come on now, love stories don't get any better than that. I hope this route that I took with the dog and husband connection wasn't too out there. But if you understand how much I love them both, you'd get why this will never be a bad pair <3 The final and biggest connection they each have with me, is that they both have my heart.

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. Thank you Lina for one of the most AMAZING thoughtful gifts ever. This necklace will honestly be cherished forever.

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.
