Here are some things (OK, eight) I love about Marchelle:
- She shared my childhood love for Barbies
- She invites me and includes me in her activities and gives me rides to get there
- She shared her bedroom with me for a summer when I lived with her family
- She is completely beautiful and athletic, inside and out
- She believes in me and encourages my dreams
- She laughs at my jokes, reads my long texts and listens to my rambling stories, while smiling......
- She looks out for me in a loving way: "I'm here for you if you need me"
- She inspires me to be a better, more Christ-like person
Some Favorite Stories:
- When we were 9 and 10, she spent a week with me at my grandma's (not our grandma) who lived 2+ hours away, so I wouldn't have to go by myself
- When I could tell people I was moving to the Philippines, she was the first person I wanted to tell. I called her house every half hour until she came home because I wanted to make sure she heard it in person, from me
- We are both doing the SL 1/2 marathon tomorrow- when we found out tonight that I hadn't picked up my race packet, she willingly adjusted plans to go with me to pick up my race packet
I love you, Marce! Thanks for the memories- I can't imagine life without you. I look forward to the day when we are married with kids and our families can get together and our kids can play.

How did the 1/2-Marathon go?! Did you love it? Did you run the whole thing? I ran 1/2 of a 1/2-Marathon last year and I plan to run again this year. You should blog about it, so we all know how it went.
Yea Marchelle!
