4 years

4 years ago today 

that girl on the left and the boy on the right started dating.

this photograph is one i'll treasure forever.

we had only been dating a month or two 

and late one friday night i said i wanted to go to the beach.

so we left the party we were at

packed some bags

and drove 8 hours through the night to florida.

we spent all day saturday on the beach 

and drove back to nashville that night

so bennett could be back in time for band practice.

i can't wait to show this photo to the little girl growing in my belly

and tell her the story of our one day beach adventure

and how i hope that she will one day find a boy

who would drive her to the beach through the night 

just so she could feel some sand between her toes.

i hope she finds a love like ours.

because it's the greatest thing I've ever known.
