My mom use to tell me that time apart is good for the heart and I would think she was crazy! now know that she is not crazy and she is right. This weekend Patrick did not come up to Spartanburg with me because he was tired of driving up there for the past month. He had a great time by himself, doing whatever he wanted to do without me nagging! I also had a great time with my family. We both missed each other very much though.
When I got home Sunday he was so happy to see me, it was like we were dating again and had not seen each other for a long time! We just sat and talked for an hour and then went to eat and watched a movie. The people behind us were shooting fireworks so we went outside to watch them and talk. I felt like I was in high school again! It was great!
I learned that sometimes we do need to miss each other to realize how much we really love one another. I realized how much I really love him this weekend and I just praise God for bringing us back together! This past year we have really had to lean on each other and God during the hard times because we are by ourselves and God has definitely blessed us with a great relationship and now NEW friends! For those of you who have just gotten married my advice would be to always lean on God and each other! You will learn so much about each other. Also always listen to God, even if He sends you an hour from your family. He has a plan and you just have to follow!
So if you start getting upset at your significant other and feel the tension is getting to hard, or just want to see how much you really love each other and miss each other, then take my mom's advice that time away is good for the heart!

You're so wise for your age! Ha! I agree though. I love it when Andy gets back from his trips. We're like dating kids again too.
