Holy. Cow. Has it really been one week already? This has probably been both the fastest and slowest week of my life, if that made any sense. Seriously, though, it has been a crazy week.
But it's getting easier. I miss Colten every day, of course. But I'm getting used to not seeing him. Not getting a good morning text. Not hearing his voice tell me good night. I miss all those things, of course, but I'm learning to make do without them for the next two years. It helps that I get to see him in my dreams almost every time I close my eyes.
I don't really feel like crying all that much anymore. Even more proof that it's getting easier. I loved getting that first email. I cannot wait to get my first letter. I love hearing from him. I love seeing how much he is growing..and in just one week. I hope that I can change and grow just as much as he is. I hope that, at the end of it all, I'm still worthy of him.
103 weeks is still a really long time, but it will go by quickly. I can already feel it.
I'm super grateful for all the MGs who have been here for me this week. Emily, Heather, Emma, and the list goes on and on. I love the MG support system. Best girls in the world, right there. I'm grateful for my at home support system. My family, friends, Bishopric. This week definitely would have been harder without them, too.
Wow. One week. Just another week closer to getting my boy back!
