6 Months....

Six months ago today I met Mr. B in person for the first time. He flew to see me... there were some weather concerns and for a while it looked like he wasn't going to be able to get there. I was having dinner with a friend who was in from out of town, and trying to be happy to see her, but so sad inside because I had my heart to set on finally getting to BE in Mr. B's arms, and it was looking like it wouldn't happen. But then... things turned around and he was on his way. I killed some time wandering around Target (what better way to kill time) and then headed to the airport. He called once his plane had landed, and we were talking as he was headed towards baggage claim where I was anxiously waiting for him. I was standing there, watching the way I believed he would be coming from, all while talking to him on the phone, and then suddenly someone grabbed me from behind, and there he was. And he was perfect. And he was handsome. And he was all I ever wanted. And he pulled me close, and kissed me, and I was home.

ETA - I just was missing Mr. B, so I sent him our usual "I missing you" message, which is "PS - I Love You." I had no more than hit send on my phone when it says I have a new message. It's from Mr. B. It says "PS - I Love You" *HAPPY SIGH*

Oh am I so PMSing...your post seriously made me cry...doesn't it stink to be away from the one you love? Reading my old letters to hubby from college just made me realize even more how much I missed him when we had to be apart..I can't wait until you guys can be together and we can read about your continuing love story!
