it's one thing to blink and realize you've suddenly known someone for 7 years; it's another think of everything you've done with that person! i've literally watched that friends go through puberty, helped them with awkward dating situations (*cough*mandi*cough*), hated them, studied for high school exams with them, traveled halfway around the world with them, and watched two of them go on missions. somewhere in there, these three boys became like the three extra brothers that i never really wanted, but now i'm incredibly grateful to have them.
and now! this
guy (equivalent to having a favorite brother in my world) is engaged!! obviously that deserves a whole blog post because, like i said, he's basically my favorite (but maybe i'm only saying that because the other two are in africa and the philippines) and i'm so excited for him that i bawled this morning when he texted me to tell me (but that could also be because i'm 6 months pregnant!). i'm so excited for him and carol, and for the incredible adventure that they're about to embark on! speaking from experience, being married is the funnest (maybe all that high school english wasn't as useful as i pretended it was).
it's been a great 7 years, and i can't wait to keep growing up and closer with marshall, and the other two boys once they're home (in a matter of months!).
