And So It Begins...

Although there is a scientific paper awaiting its completion, I'm going to make my first blog entry. Ready? Here goes... I moved to Maine this summer with the most wonderful man I know. Every day his patience, kindness and wit impress me and I love him even more than I did the day before. It's hard to think I didn't notice any of these things when we met 12 years ago in 6th grade.

Last winter, he agreed to embark on an adventure with me so I could go to graduate school in the great white north. Being away from everything we know, all of our friends and family, has been a challenge. And we have learned a huge deal about ourselves and each other, and I am proud to say we're getting married as soon as I get this degree.

This blog is a way for me to catalog our adventures and experiences as we start our life together in Maine, the things we see and do and the things we learn about each other and life. So I've got some catching up to do! We've been here for 5 months now and we've done some amazing things...so the next blog I have time for will be a quick synopsis of the adventures of the past 5 months and all the emotions that went along with them. I love you, Kurt.
