A little Note from Murph to Giull

This note is for posterity, so that we can remember how our first married semester went.
Dear Giull,
I hope you know how proud I am of you for working as hard as you do every weekend. Even though my "sacrifice" of the weekend means I spend nights in the front room doing homework/crocheting/being a bum, yours is so much greater. I know you do not like sleeping all day on the weekend, and I start to get teary eyed every time I see you get dressed to go to work, but I know it will be worth it in a few years when we can have some savings for a hard time. You've already given up so much, even a weekend with your mom in Jackson, so that we can have money to pay rent and keep ourselves afloat while we wait for our financial aid to come in. I wish I had a job so that I could help you out and that you don't have to do this every weekend. You're so great, and I wish I could help you out more. Just know that every time you come home and the kitchen's clean, or there's homemade bread or cookies on a plate for you, I'm doing it to try and make your life a little bit easier. You're doing this, and keeping up your grades in school, and still being a great husband and putting my life in a higher priority than your own. I will make sure to work for you while you're in PA school so that I can repay you somehow. You're my best friend, and I love you for everything you do. We will have a great life someday because of the work you are doing for us!!
Love,
your Murph
