The waiting is the hardest part. That's what this place is, one giant virtual waiting room. Right now my husband and I spend every free moment on Skype. To the point where I'm getting lower back issues and am looking into buying a laptop it's a sucky thing but it's all we got at the moment.Just think how strong your relationship will be once this is all over with. That's what keeps us going. Hang in there :)

Thank you so much for your very strong words of encouragement :) I just went to watch our wedding video today and it made me so happy... I felt like I was on top of the world :) :)

It just reminded me of what I am really waiting for and I know it's going to be fantastic when I finally get there!!!!! So I am praying for patience and for God to see us through this process... All the best to you and yours as well and thanks again.
