  • Sentimental Crap

    I don’t really consider myself to be that sentimental.  I don’t keep movie stubs of first dates, I don’t keep old yearbooks for memories (I barely know where my college diploma is……hmm, I should find that), etc.  I just never was good at that stuff.

    But today, I looked at my counter which counts down to my wedding day, and my heart gave a little jump.  I can’t believe I’m actually getting married this month!  So I started thinking about all of our years together.  Whenever I get like this, I go to my email account.

    As of today, I have 1,300 emails from Mr. Butterfly.  I have the very first email he wrote to me, which I love.  I have our first email fight on record.  I have the first silly rhyme he ever wrote me (of course, he no longer does that).  Some days, I will spend hours just reading these emails, remembering all of the things that we’ve been through together.  All of the ups and downs are in these emails…and I never want to forget them.

    I guess underneath it all, I really am a sentimental fool.

    What do you keep in your relationships?
