Wifey Material?

          This morning I caught myself messing up my usual routine. Every Tuesday night, I make sure to remind Marc to take out the trash. It's usually pretty easy to remember because we have the same trash day here all the way over in Indiana. As soon as I woke up I sent the text about the trash hoping that 1. the trash wasn't already picked up and 2. that Marc has enough time to take out the trash before heading out to work. Why stress over the trash? I'm not stressing over the trash, but I like to be helpful from afar. Remembering the trash is reminding myself and Marc that I'm not just thinking about getting through school, but I'm actively trying to be a wife. After all, that is what a wife is for right? To do what ever the husband wants? (That's a joke guys) But on a serious note, a personal alarm clock is never an issue. It's kind of fun to wake Marc up at the crack of dawn because I have to walk Hercules. I love making breakfast for two, early in the morning with Marc not wanting to get up but having the food already made so he has no choice. I like the challenge of ironing his clothes with my iron, praying to God my horrible iron doesn't ruin any of his clothes the way it has mine. I like to overheat Marc with my body heat when I cuddle with him for too long because it lets me know his skin can still detect temperatures. It's always the plan to have him park behind my car in Indiana so he doesn't have the choice but to take me to work himself or wake up early enough to move the car. Or to read a book, and partially spoil it because I get too into the book. To have a partner while completing a yoga challenge that we both absolutely suck at. Or to tell you I don't have the time to be mad at you because I'm trying to do good in school for us both. Being a wife is writing up a blog later in the day when I know you'd much rather have it before 9am. Or having someone to laugh at you when you drink water expecting water, not lemonade. Being a wife is reading incorrect directions on how to make your cookie dough. Being a wife is to feel what ever emotions you have 10x stronger just because I'm an emotional wreck. A wife is and will always be your number one cheerleader because she has that much faith in you doing what ever it is that you're doing. So Marc, is it still worth having a wife?

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. No but seriously, the trash!

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.
