Growth

This is Caleb.

We had our first counseling not all that long ago with Pastor Dave, and we learned some issues in our relationship that we could work on. A pleasant surprise to find out that we have a great relationship! Not surprising, actually, that the relationship is great, because that's obvious to both of us just due to the sheer enjoyment we both take from being together (even if "together" is from 3000 miles away). BUT, to take a third-party questionnaire, separately, without discussing the questions or answers, and to see just how much a good fit we are for each other... AMAZING. And now to see how well we have been able to work on our "growth" areas, and to see our effective communication in action, and to improve on our communication further- it is all so exciting! Bottom line: I love Nancy.

It's often hard to express my love for Nancy because I've never experienced this before. All I can do is continue to repeat to her that I do, I do love her. Often times she asks, "What do you love about me?" Such a hard question to answer! Can't I just get away with "EVERYTHING"? Because that's the honest truth. The good times, the hard times, the times in between... I love them all! I love every aspect of being in a relationship with this woman- EVERY aspect. Life has it's tests and trials, and I would want to go through it with no one else by my side.
