Two Months
(To a girl I'm totally crazy about)
Two months of playing
Two months of fun
Two months of stories
Heather, our relationship has just begun
Two months of laughter
Two months of right
Two months of dancing
Heather, you are my delight
Two months of holding hands
Two months of new
Two months of jazz
Heather, I love you
=)
We've been without a printer for the last year. With the class that I'm doing right now, this has produced some frustrating/stressful moments. Well, when I got home last night, there was a note on the doggy gate at the top of the stairs. It was a plain sheet of printer paper, and right in the center, "I love you" was typed in my favorite font. Sometimes the little things feel pretty big =) So, in response, I wanted to post this poem Daniel wrote me in April of 2007, because... well... I don't know! I'm feeling so proud of him for how well and how thoroughly he loves me, that letting you see another way he has loved me seemed a more appropriate way to honor him today than me writing my own feelings. I don't know if that makes any sense at all. But it feels right. =)

i've missed you
it has been almost 2 months to the day since my last post. whoa. i just got caught up on a bunch of my friends' blogs and i'm super glad to be back =)
so, here's the scoop:
may 23, daniel and i moved out of our first apartment, with the immense help of my parents and our friend craig. no joke, we got the truck at 3 p.m. and returned it by 6 p.m. it was amazing! we moved everything into my parents' house/garage, and set up shop there to live for 3 weeks.
may 30, daniel and i celebrated our FIRST WEDDING ANNIVERSARY! how exciting! what a wonderful, crazy, unexpected year it's been, and we are so thankful for how far God has brought us in such a short time. we got to hop in the car and return to our honeymoon spot for the weekend (the outerbanks). good food, relaxation, and fun! we mini-golfed at the funnest golf course ever designed and we saw a play on roanoke island called "the lost colony" that has been playing there every summer for decades.
june 2, daniel teaches a science class (with only 36 hours to prepare) as a candidate for a job. the class goes so well that in the interview, the principal tells him that he has set the bar very high for the other candidates! WAY TO GO!!!!!!!! to be continued...
june 6, my big brother got married in indiana! i got to stand on his side as his "groomsmatron." it was so wonderful to see our extended family, and i'm so happy for jeff and lauren! daniel and i took a road trip out to indiana - 10 hours each way. we really really ate up that time together in the car. it was refreshing and sweet =)
june 12, my last shift at starbucks!
june 14, daniel and i move into our new abode, with the help of my parents, daniel's dad, daniel's dad's best friend, daniel's best man and daniel's best man's friend. how's that for helping hands?!?! i tell you what: many hands DO make light work. pictures to come!
june 15, daniel gets a job as a middle school science teacher for the fall at st. martin's lutheran school!!!!!!!!! I AM SO PROUD OF DANIEL!!!!!!!!!!
june 20, rohanna dance productions 5th annual recital! they do SO many dances, that they actually have two three-hour recitals on the same day. my mom sat with me for the whole thing (noon to 8!), and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
i'm down to just one job now, bookkeeping for ken's creative kitchen. it's a great job - flexible, chellenging at times, but very doable. i'm hoping that i can become a teacher, too, but in high school english. so i'm working on that as well.
looks like i may have to start capitalizing things if i'm gonna teach english.
