Getting there

Well, it feels like it's been a long week. It has actually. But I'm beginning to feel better. I'm so grateful for that. I'm still congested and now have a cough. But everything is breaking up and coming out. Hopefully I will be in the clear soon.

I get to talk to my sweetie about twice a day right now. I'm so grateful for computers and the amazing technology that has been given us! I think back to the pioneers and first members of the church. (as well as the pilgrims!) I get concerned when James isn't available for chat exactly when he said he would be. I cannot imagine those days when families would depend on letters or telegraphs to hear how their loved ones were doing. I am constantly reminded of how blessed I am. I also like to think of Joseph and Emma Smith. They had such a strong love for one another! Unbreakable! Amazing! They wrote such lovely words back and forth to one another. And expressed their feelings often. I like to think that James and I have that kind of relationship. Undying, true, unbreakable and AMAZING! He is such a ray of sunshine in my life. I'm so grateful for his sacrifices and SO thankful that I get to be spoiled to talk to him and see him while he is away. (sorry. maybe I got carried away there.)
