If you would have told me sophomore year that in a matter of a year i would fall in love with a boy who was leaving on a mission i would tell you that you are crazy and i am not that kind of person. falling in love with dylan was something i never expect. when i envisioned my life, waiting for a boy was never my plan. once i met dylan i knew my life would be changed regardless of where our relationship ended up. he opened my eyes to what i means to be a true disciple of Jesus Christ and how i deserve to be treated.

being a missionary girlfriend has its highs and lows. you want to support them in everything they do, but at the same time you want them to come home so badly. being in high school also adds a twist to it as well. my boy is in north Carolina and is loving every second of it! i miss him more than i could have ever imagined. i am putting my life in the lords hands and trusting in his eternal plan. the best advice i give to anyone either on this journey or about to start would be to progress your self spiritually and intellectually, don’t put your life on pause you are allowed to grow and change. the lord has a plan for you and he loves you always remember that when life gets tough
