Dear Amy at 28, When we were younger we used to think about staying 18 forever. Every dream or ideal involved us staying 18 years old. At 28 this will be 10 years past our once ideal age, but even now I am glad that we didn’t find some weird way to stay 18. WeContinue reading “May Amy #29: Dreamin’”

May Amy #28: Here’s to next year
Dear Amy at 27, Writing to my future self is a little bit weirder than writing to the past. I don’t know what is going to happen in the future, but there are things that I hope would come to pass. Maybe that is what these will be. Next year is going to be anContinue reading “May Amy #28: Here’s to next year”
May Amy #27: Welcome to the present
Dear Amy at 26, Or I guess me… now. We are six months into this year and things have been smooth for the most part. Things are a bit tight with money, but we are getting better at budgeting which is nice. Our birthday… well we don’t like those and somehow one of our mainContinue reading “May Amy #27: Welcome to the present”

May Amy #25: Love & Marriage
Dear Amy at 24, This is it – this year is all of our stress and nerves bundled up. We would be lying if we said we hadn’t been planning the wedding since Alex gave us our first wedding planner for a Valentines Day many moons ago. Thanks to our long engagement, the biggest worryContinue reading “May Amy #25: Love & Marriage”
May Amy #24: More graduation
Dear Amy at 23, We are in our last year at University and it is a rough one. Among our classes are some that we need for credits and don’t want to be at, and some that we need for credits and our professor is… interesting.

May Amy #23: Engage!
Dear Amy at 22, Another year of interesting things! We are now pacing ourselves well with university and everything seems to be going fairly well.

May Amy #22: Moving Mayhem
Dear Amy at 21… This is a weird year and there really isn’t anyway to talk about everything. After all of the funerals we are a bit of a shell version of ourself. Harry Potter comes out after our birthday and we sew a set of Gryffindor robes which gives us a sense of stabilityContinue reading “May Amy #22: Moving Mayhem”
May Amy #21: Loss
Dear Amy at 20, Congratulations, you officially have a degree! The year starts out the same, still at Staples, still in school, but by June we are fully moved in with Alex and we finish the school year with some alright photos. Everyone comes down and there are some good family shots too – butContinue reading “May Amy #21: Loss”
May Amy #20: Voting
Dear Amy at 19, The year starts off with a bang — not really. A few days before our birthday we find out that the cost of an eye exam goes up when you hit 19, so we go the day before our birthday and it turns out that we need glasses. We think itsContinue reading “May Amy #20: Voting”
