Hey Sweetie!
The song that I had stuck in my head yesterday is one by Kalai, Patience Lies. I'll try to bold the things that particularly stick out to me in the song and make me think about you:
"It’s clear now you’re too far away. It’s been too long, you won’t consider it. I follow a lighted path, well beaten. I’m looking for the switch back, it’s not so easy. I’ve read your words line by empty line. True, my fate deserves destiny denied. But I can’t go on watching patience lie. So in my dreams, we’ll share this dance together. And I’ll never wake, I’ll keep my eyes closed forever. I try not to worry, I try not to think about it. I was never in a hurry I never had to complicate my views."
So I finally got your letters today. I got three today (two in one envelope, and one in another) and I must say that they were absolutely delicious. I was so excited and I've read them several times already. It makes me want to be able to send letters to you even more because I know that it will do for you what your letters did for me today and they made me so happy and made me feel very loved by you. One of my favorite lines was "I love you and I miss you more than I ever have." I think that's such a good way to put it, how we are both feeling right now. It's stretching us farther than we've ever been stretched and it's scary, but at the same time kind of cool because we know it's making us stronger. Also, now we know we can handle anything that comes our way. Heavenly Father has promised me/us that anything that we go through, trials, time apart, etc. is only going to strengthen our family. That's a very big comfort to me, and I hope it is to you too. I've already seen it happen with some of the trials we have faced as a couple. Even though the main problem we have dealt with over the last couple years has been incredibly hard it has been such a learning experience for us and brought us close in a way nothing else could have. Heavenly Father has blessed us so much and he will continue to do so if we rely on him and keep him an active participant in our marriage relationship. I know this to be true!
I'm really glad that we got to talk on the phone again yesterday. There just never seems to be enough time or enough words to try and express how I'm feeling and how much I love you. One thing that is nice though is even if we can only talk for a few minutes, I still feel better because we've been able to connect and you are my partner in crime. It's late so I better wrap this up. I want you to know that even though we miss you, your girls (all three of us) are doing REALLY well! We know that you are looking out for us even if you are in Oklahoma. You are the head of our family and I love that! Heavenly Father is keeping us safe, my parents are taking really good care of us, and I'm doing a good job moming our girls. I'm certainly gaining a respect for single mothers, they are amazing. Well, I love you and good night...
Love-Jess
P.S. I love life with you!
