Dear You,

I couldn't wait to meet you. I couldn't wait to get to know you, to ask you questions about your childhood to figure out why you do certain things you do now.
But I didn't just want to get to know you, I wanted to see your soul and I wanted you to feel that you're safe with me - home; not a place to meet but two arms and a heartbeat, yours.
You'll make me love getting up in the morning because I'll get to wake up next to you. Watch you compete with the Sun about who shines brighter, but I already know who's going to win, sorry kiddo.
I couldn't wait to fall for someone like you because this kind of falling actually feels like flying.
You won't have to question my love because I'll be all about you.
Ever heard a girl say, "I want somebody to look at me just like someone who's color blind, finally see's color for the first time." I look at you like that.. like I've never seen anything more beautiful in my life.
Whatever you've been through before, things that broke you but shaped you, all this pain.. I'll try love it all away..
I'll pinky promise to be there for you.
I'll pinky promise to pick you up when you fall.
I'll pinky promise to love you without makeup, sweatpants on, messy hair, morning breath and moodiness.
I'll pinky promise to work through tough times with you.
I'll pinky promise to give 90% when you can only give 10.
I'll pinky promise to encourage you to work for the things you want.
I'll pinky promise to stand up for you even when you're not around.
I just hope you don't get mad when I don't buy you flowers.. because I'll plant a garden for you.
They say when you like flowers, you pick them, but if you love flowers, you water them, give them a place to grow and feel good.
I want to be that place for you.
I'm honestly so excited to see you succeed, whatever it is that you want to do that makes you feel alive.. even if I'm not the lucky one to be by your side.

Sincerely,
Your number 1 fan.
