New, You’re So New

Don’t let it go away, this feeling has got to stay 

Don’t let it go away, this feeling has got to stay

And I can’t believe I’ve had this chance now

Don’t let it go away… 

Gwen Stefani’s sweet serenade echos through my Airpods as I realize more and more that the older I get, the more I relate to the very words she’s been singing to me all this time. I have spent this past year with the love of my life in constant disbelief. There is not a moment that I don’t look at Danny, and wonder how I got him. All those times I admiringly (or creepily LOL) stare at him when we lay next to each other in bed, all I can think about is how amazing he is. I stare at him as if I’m trying to dissect any mathematical equation that will explain how we exist in the same universe together. How did the chemicals react so perfectly? I think, just maybe, I’ve found the meaning to life.

Danny has always been brand new to me. It’s so foreign for me to feel a love like this. I don’t understand how somebody could love, care for, and appreciate me the way that he does. I feel like Jack Skellington when he stumbled upon Christmas Town for the very first time. WHAT IS THIS? The excitement that pulses through me frightens me sometimes. I feel newly energized. I feel alive for the first time in forever. I hope this feeling stays for an eternity. This entire year has been a complete whirlwind.

Happy Year One to my everything! I’m so grateful to have this chance to be loved by you. I’ll never take it for granted. This is only the beginning. I can’t wait to spend every Halloween with you by my side.

New

You’re so new, new
