2nd Go Around: What a year can do

One year ago today - I woke up in my house after a long night of celebrating Marti and Seth's wedding day. I immediately wished Tiffany a Happy Birthday! Text Erica and told her that I would not be making it to Smithville to hunt with her and Anna. Boy, Anna sure was mad at me. I wanted a fall day at my house. I probably made coffee, cinnamon rolls, and enjoyed a day with the windows open. I'm pretty sure I already had my Halloween decorations out {Note to self: get out Halloween decorations this weekend}

I've already told you what the fall always made me think of.

So on this day - I text Cory and simply said, "I need to talk, call when you can." He immediately replies, "Is everything ok?" Sweet, sweet Cory was always worried about me, wanting to be sure that I was safe and ok. I reassured him that I was just fine, that I just wanted to talk. Him and his brother had just gotten the cabin and he was starting the adventure of the remodel. [Lord I didn't know that I was soon to be knee deep in helping with the remodel.]

That night Cory and I talked. I basically said, I think we have been making a mistake... a big mistake. We haven't been completely happy since we said goodbye. We talked about everything, how thankful we were for our time apart and how much we have grown into adults. We finally were able to see all of our wrong doings during our first go around. I was able to apologize for the things I did and said during that time. During our time apart he began to understand the value of appreciation and how important that is in a relationship. On that day we didn't make any plans, didn't say we were going to do anything but just see. We have spoken every single day and seen each other almost every weekend since then.

We are 18 days away from our wedding day today. I thank God every single day that I wrote Cory on that day. That I finally opened my eyes to what I had been missing out on. I sure missed him and was so thankful to have him back in my life. I can't believe so much has changed in a year. If you would have asked me a year ago where I would be I would have told you single, living with Tiffany, and backroading every night. I am very glad things turned out perfectly!
