Jordan and I will have been dating one year on November 1, 2008.
Our relationship has been a roller coaster! There have been ruff uphill climbs filled with uncertainty. We have had many fun and heartfelt drops that make our stomachs flutter. Then there are the times when we are just coasting on the excitement of a drop.
Our relationship is built on the knowledge that we will stick it out no matter what we are in or what might come up next.
Here are some things that have been helpful for us this past year in building a strong foundation for a good relationship:
- Figuring out each others love languages.
- Learning and understanding our unique personalities.
- Making an effort to understand the differences between males and females.
Here are some highlights of our first year.
- First date to Peeks View Park
- Hike up to the LU Monogram.
My Birthday.- Jordan's Birthday.
- Spontaneous Adventure to Inner Harbor, Baltimore.
- My first flowers delivered right to my desk!
Now, our one year Anniversary is coming up in less than a week!
I had panicked for a couple of weeks because of uncertainty of what to buy him, but I have finally made my choice. Jordan has a deep attachment to the pocket knife he keeps in his left pants pocket. He is the type that looks for reasons to whip it out. A couple of months ago the blade cracked and he has been hoping to get another. He has put up with his old one without complaints and now I think it is time he gets a new one. I bought him a S&W ATM SWAT ASSISTED OPENING Pocket Knife. I am really hoping he likes it!
He has the day planned out and i am super excited just to spend time with him and celebrate being together for a whole year!
Jordan and I are rearing up for another year and can't wait to see what God has planned for us!
