The Prep


          It's that time again! That time when I deep clean the house, get Marc's favorite kind of foods, and get tons of chocolate milk. I'm pretty sure at this point, people know when Marc is coming. I always make it a point to do a super in depth cleaning of the house, because my hubby deserves the nicest visits. I literally put everything in spots to try to have everything perfectly ready for him. Then I practically run out of work barely saying goodbye to get food for dinner. Usually I make the usual, rice, beans, and pork chops/chicken, but today, I felt kind of sporty, and I know my husband loves hot sauce, soooo. I know my husband, and if he knows me, as he reads this, he'll know what side dish I bought at work as well. Which, I'm pretty sure he'll guess, considering last time I didn't get it and he was shocked. Yes babe, I remembered the salad this time. I'm also gonna try to get you to eat something healthy tonight. I hope you like it! So, after work, and picking up the food, I'm off to the campus Pod (a mini convenient store). It's funny because as soon as I walk in, the guy knows exactly what I'm going to get. The first couple of times he looked at me like I was crazy. Then one day he saw my ring and covered his eyes, saying that my husband must really love me because it was blinding him. Every since then, he knows when Marc is visiting. 3 half gallons of chocolate milk, please and thank you! Then I come home, and inspect the entire house to see what mess could have been made as I was at work, cleaning up any last minute messes. Today, nothing! Thank God. After inspecting, I begin cooking, and usually typing up the blog. No matter how far I know Marc is, once I get home I don't like to go too far from the kitchen because I want to greet Marc right away. I always make sure to have dinner finishing just before he gets here, that way everything is nice and warm, and he can just sit down to eat. I always have the table set up and food on low to keep it at the perfect temperature. As I think I've got it all down, I always forget one thing, but hey, no one is perfect. It's okay though, I'm too excited! Counting down the minutes! <3

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. We will have an against-the-odds, everlasting, successful relationship! Why is that? Because I believe it <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.
