Relationship Series: Little Miss
Sweet readers, you can call me Little Miss. I'm so pleased to be able to share some thoughts with you while Jenny is away on her romantic honeymoon!
Life for me has been simple and sweet lately, and for the first time ever, I have a romance to boast of. Patiently, I've waited for God to lead me into a relationship that honors Him, and ever so faithfully, He's worked in the lives of myself and my sweet friend J to bring us together. It's all very new, and the "sparks" and "butterflies" I've always heard of are suddenly very real, and rather exciting.
Part of the magic, of course, is the moments spent together on dates. J and I have been on quite a few in these past weeks, yet I can't help but dream of more. There are four romantic dates I've always dreamed of that keep running through my mind, dates I hope to plan for the days ahead.
The fort date is one I look forward to, with the thrown together intimacy of walls made with blankets and soft lights illuminating the pillows we'd relax on. It's the perfect way to take a dinner date, and make it a little more exciting! I also know it's something J will love, since so much of him is still a child at heart, and construction of the fort would likely be more exciting to him than the actual time spent in it.
An outdoor movie date is something that I've always dreamed of doing with a boy. An evening spent under the stars, holding hands and huddled in blankets spells out a night to be remembered. I'd probably prepare well in advance, making sure I have a few lemony snacks ready for him, since that's his favorite. Of course, there's always the excitement of fingers meeting in the popcorn bowl, so I'd make sure to have that too.
As I think of dates, picnics have been filling my daydreams of late. I can't stop musing about the simplicity of sweet snacks packed to share in a deserted field, spread out on a pretty blanket. Or a plain table dressed with a bouquet of flowers and candles to compliment the flowing beauty of the abandoned field in which the table is set. These moments are what I've always dreamed to be the most romantic, and I plan to find ways to make them happen. J and I have already had a few picnic moments, and I think the simplicity of a walk and a picnic might just become our signature.
The last romantic date I've been dreaming of isn't really a specific "date", but more of a mindset. It's the mindset that says seize the moment and make it memorable! Be just a little spontaneous. Be a little crazy! Run out into the deserted road and lay there, just the two of you, just for fun. I need to remind myself to find these moments of potential in the dates J and I will have, because those are the moments that make memories.
I hope through my sentimental daydreams of dates to come, you've had the opportunity to come up with a few ideas for you and your sweetheart. And, if you don't have a sweetheart, let my story be encouragement to you. God has a plan, and He knows what the best timing is, so trust Him!
Stop by and visit my sweet journal where I'll share with you the musings of a twenty-something's life as she seeks to serve God, (and go on dates with a brown eyed boy.)
