long time no see

Spring semester at BYU-Idaho has come to a close. Most people would be beyond excited for that, however, my darling Jaden and I have dreaded it. It marked the start of him and I being apart for 6 months. Saying goodbye was one of the hardest and most painful things I have ever done. A piece of me was left behind in Blackfoot, Idaho. Since then, it's been a hard road. Scripture studies and prays are done over the phone. I love you's are exchanged over texts. Kisses, hugs and winks are completely non existent. But The love I feel for him is stronger than it has ever been. I desire to be more obedient in my spiritual progress, in keeping the commandments, and in preparing myself the best I can to soon marry him. I don't think I have ever leaned on the Lord this much in my life. I have faced some very hard trials too, but for some reason, leaving Jaden in Blackfoot while I drove 14 hours home to San Diego, takes the cake. I miss my honey, and I want to go back to Idaho, A BUNCH.
