Dear J,

I can't believe its already been a year. On one hand it has flown by, but on the other hand it feels like we have been together so much longer just because of how comfortable we are together. And probably because of how strongly I feel for you.

Baby, I seriously think that we are a perfect couple. I cannot even begin to express how amazing our relationship has been. The present that I made for you allowed me to look back on the past year which has brought back so many memories for me. I got to remember all the little bits and pieces of our relationship that got us to where we are now, which is unbelievable. And now I get to share them all with you. I wonder what things you will remember from each of these experiences, and if any of them differ in your mind. I hope these are things that you never forget, and hopefully this helps to remind you in case you ever do.

I look forward to waking up every morning because I know you'll be right next to me. I also know that once you see I'm awake, you'll come over and scoop me up in your arms and kiss my forehead and tell me how beautiful I am.  I also look forward to coming home after a day at work because I know you'll be there to pick me up in your arms and tell me you love me. You always put up with me blabbing on and on about my day and you never complain. This is one of the many things that stand out to me about you. 

I think in a way, we have the overly corny relationship that people only hate because they envy it. The way we talk to each other, our “PDA’s”, our ridiculously cute pictures on Facebook, and the way that we talk about one another to everyone (man we must drive people crazy!) I’m so glad we have this type of relationship. It is so refreshing to know how much we care for each other.

I love you so much, J. I ask myself every single day how I got so lucky to find someone as amazing as you. I don’t understand how you picked me, out of every other girl in the world, but I am so thankful that you did. You have shown me a life that I don’t think many people will ever get to experience. I like to think that what we have is so special and unique that no one will ever have anything even close to it. And part of me believes that to be true. I don’t think there is anyone who can love someone the way that you love me, or anyone that has someone that makes me feel the way that you do. People are jealous of us, people think we’re a power-couple, and people hope to have what we have someday. I look at past relationships and wonder what I was thinking, but at the same time I am grateful for them because they led me to you. 

Here is to another amazing year, and hopefully many more beyond that. I love you, J.  

Love, 

S.
