I Got 24 Hours


          As I told Marc about an hour ago, I already feel like I'm on my way home. 1 paper, 1 lesson plan, 3 classes, a 6 hour work shift, and a 4 and a half hour drive stand in the way of me being home right now, and I still couldn't be anymore excited. You know you're pumped for something when an entire day is still ahead of you, and it barely matters. I'm only mentioning kids right now because I'm working on a lesson plan and just got out of my preschool class, but I can't wait to be that crafty mom. And I can't wait for Marc to be that hovering dad who checks all of our kid's homework assignment (I'm pretty sure that's how it'll be hahaha). Okay, that's enough kid talk, I just had to get that out there. I can't wait to get home tomorrow night and sleep in my own bed, snuggle with my hubby, and to be feeling comfortable in my own home. That's all I ever want really. To be comfy with the person that I love. In order for me to do so, I must get all of my work done tonight so we can actually relax and have a chill weekend. We always say we're going to just relax and never do, but I really hope we do this weekend, because I know we both would love to catch up on sleep. Who says you gotta have kids to be tired? We've got each other, and that makes us tired enough hahaha. In exactly 24 hours I will be driving home with Herky, super tired and wide awake at the same time. I'm already tired for tomorrow, but knowing what is waiting for me at the end of the drive is enough to keep me awake and excited. Every time I want to pull over tomorrow to sleep, I'll just remind myself, those are just extra minutes I can be at home with Marc, so don't waste them napping in the car at a pit stop on the turnpike. Home is calling my name!

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. Our last weekend trip before graduation!!!

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.
