Well, right now -as I am freezing in Utah :-) due to my choice and stupidity ;-) -- Shay is basing in the warm sun of Mexico with a bunch of his friends. I am sure he is having a FABULOUS time!
Due to Shay's absence, I have had tons of extra time on my hands to try and catch up on all the things I have ignored so that I could spend time with him. During this time, I have had the chance to reflect on our relationship and what it is that I love about Shay. So, since it is sappy Valentines Day week, I thought I would share just a few amazing things about Shay that makes my heart go pitter-patter...
1. Shay makes me laugh! He has the most contagious laugh ever! He brings joy and contentment to all those around him!
2. Shay is patient. He is dating me, enough said ;-)
3. Shay is someone who is always willing to serve.
I will always remember the weekend Shay literally spent hours rubbing my back to try and help the pain go away (and we weren't even dating at the time).
4. Shay is extremely intelligent --he is constantly amazing me. If one takes the time to listen, one can learn a lot from him. Yet, Shay is so humble that he isn't one to trumpet his own horn!
5. Shay is such a gentleman! After 6 months of dating, he still opens the car door for me--both to get in and get out (as well as all doors).
6. Shay is very spiritual. A quality that is so hard to find nowadays. He puts God first and is very in tune with the spirit. I love this because it pushes me to be better
7. Shay has amazing self-control! He doesn't allow others to ruffle his feathers. He is able to back away from a situation and look at it from all angles. He doesn't allow anger to get the best of him.
8. Shay is analytical. He thinks everything through. So when he does make a decision one knows it isn't something done haphazardly!
9. Shay has the most beautiful blue eyes that I have ever seen! Seriously, take a look! My heart is pitter-pattering just thinking about them!
10. Shay is a deep individual. I really love talking with hm. We are able to have deep meaningful conversations that leave me feeling safe, happy, energized, and thoughtful, etc. A few times I have found that we don't necessarily hold the exact same points of view---but I also have found myself having to respect, reflect and at times even change my views due to the thoughts and feelings he has shares with me....he is amazing!
Well, I could go on and on but it is past my bedtime and I need to get up really early tomorrow morning....but I just wanted to share a few things about the man I am dating! Now can you see why I am so excited to have him return from Mexico!
