If so, please send an email to cait.mcdevitt@gmail.com with your story. Thanks!

(thankfully :-D) but I do have a lot of experience with the distance thing. But, hey Thomas, be thankful that Grace at least has a phone and Internet. Do ya'll use Skype? > Brian Well, I don’t exactly have a lot of experience with the courtship thing. (thankfully :-D ) but I do have a lot of experience with the distance thing.

There is a city about 45min. from each of us that we can meet in, and do at times, but all the points you touched upon are so true. The only seeing each other on weekends...gas prices...living a kind of regular, everyday life. It is certainly a challenge, and the toughest part for me is that it is impossible to make all involved happy - with different churches and diffferent families. Anyway, I enjoyed this in a I completely know what you are talking about kind of way! Blesings!!
