Love...

the one person I consider to be my soul mate. But I found you.

Our Love Grows Deeper Every Day
(Dedicated to my Love, my EVERYTHING, Jordan Smith)

"When I think of us -- and of all the things the two of us bring to our relationship -- I am so incredibly thankful.

I am thankful...that our two paths converged, and that such a perfect companion was waiting there for me.

I am thankful...that the nicest, sweetest, most wonderful person there could ever be...is here beside me in so many ways. Warming up even the cloudiest of times, inspiring those 'mmm...' kind of dreams in my days, and giving my hopes a place they love to come home to.

I am thankful...that I can open up to you and share every side of me, every facet of my life and my personality, and that you are so understanding, so supportive, and so good at making me realize that you are willing to accept me for what I am. That kind of reassurance is priceless to me, and I will treasure that feeling forever.

I am thankful...that my wishes and my tomorrows and my smiles never seemed as hopeful or as happy or as bright.

So please...allow me to thank you for being my love, my desire, my dream come true, and the very best thing in my life."
