Today was an uneventful day for baby, although I was kinda queasy all day, but no throwing up! Hooray!
I suppose the circumstances surrounding this special time in our marriage are worth writing about. I have just begun my first semester at Idaho State University as a first semester junior in the Social Work Program. Unfortunately, the distance and class load has picked me up from burley and landed me at my grandma's house in pocatello monday through thursday every week. With 19 credits this semester, there seemed few other options.
It is difficult, more lonely than anything else, being away from Casey so often. I miss him. Especially his happy greetings when we meet at home at the end of our busy days. Sometimes he comes in with a song and a dance, but more often then not just his happy smile and genuine hugs and kisses overpower any stressful event from the day. Alas, I am left alone to manage my stress level- although I must say I am getting better at it! Today I quit studying at quarter to nine and took a hot shower, listened to my favorite music, and took some time to study scriptures...my stress management techniques!
He calls me every night and we read scriptures together and pray together- just hearing his voice soothes my soul more than hot showers and music ever could. I really believe there is healing power in loving someone and being loved!
