Why does a mms message send the text separately?

It's so carriers can charge you twice if you don't have unlimited. That's just my take.
 
I am on AT&T and mine does the same thing no biggie for me as long as they receive Everthing.
 
It's a feature of advanced messaging. Leavign that turned on will segregate text from multimedia. If you want the text and picture to go out together, open settings from your messaging app, select advanced messaging and disable it. That will allow your pictures and text to go out together.
