TRANSFERS... YAY....... wait WHAT.. NO!!!
So Elder Norman was transferred again which is super exciting, and were one transfer closer to being together again. :) But transfers aren't such a happy thing when your missionary is transferred to the farthest South part of the mission and only lives 4 hours away from you! Yeah .. I wasn't to happy. Its SOOOOO tempting just to drive up and visit. Especially since he is closer now than when he is back HOME HOME in California. :/ Oh well, at least letters and packages come and go faster! :)

An angel from above...
Once upon a time there was this gorgeous girl living in Montana who just so happened to be a photographer. Her name was Emily. She lived in the area that the courageous, strong, and ridiculously handsome missionary Elder Norman was serving in. One day she ran into Elder Norman and his companion, and took pictures of them. A few days past and this beautiful girl shared the pictures with Madelyn; a girl who was faithfully waiting for Elder Norman's return (from his two year mission to baptize the lost souls and save the world).. so they could be together for Eternity.Well Emily and Madelyn became good friends at the perfect moment. You see Emily was going through some hardships that Madelyn was able to help her with, and Madelyn was going through some hardships as well. Emily didn't know this, but she helped Madelyn a LOT in her time of need, and she said JUST the right things that Madelyn needed to here. So from that day on, in Madelyn's eyes, Emily was...and still is... an Angel from above.

Just one of THOSE days.. :(
So if your an MG you totally know what I'm talking about when I say "one of THOSE days". We all have them every once in a while. One of those days where you feel like this two year journey is really longer than a lifetime, and you miss them so badly, your heart literally aches to just be in their arms again. A Day where all you want to do is wear some comfy sweats/ yoga pants, listen to depressing music ALL DAY LONG and watch sappy love movies and CRY CRY CRY because your life feels like a black hole and you are in the bottomless pit of depression. I know sounds super dramatic, but hey they totally happen! Well today has been one of those days. Even though I was with friends and family all day, it was still hard. Especially when two of your friends are having a total cuddle session right before your eyes! Its like REALLY PEOPLE... DON'T YOU KNOW how I feel right now? I guess its not fair to feel like that if I don't tell them I'm having a rough day. The world doesn't revolve around me. Anyway, luckily there are multiple support groups on F.B. for Missionary Girlfriends. All you MG's out there are the reason I am still going strong.
Time really is going faster now that I have hit the year mark, even though today REALLY didn't seem like it. I just need to keep bettering myself. I need to remember that he loves me and that this is the right thing. I need to remember that this is the Lord's work he is doing, and if its meant to be, this two year journey will strengthen and bless our relationship/ marriage (hopefully/eventually).
