From day one, I wanted us to grow together, and that’s what our relationship is..
It’s growth- it always has been.
I remember one of the first times I stayed the night, and I remember sitting with you and staring into your eyes telling you that I want to be with you because I know you will guide me and help me grow in knowledge and strength.
Did I know it would be like this? Not at all.
You’ve brought me to places that helped me reclaim my voice- my no, my communication- though it’s still not easy, but because of you I get by a little bit easier.
I hope for our future, you will always push me to do the things that help me go in the right direction- one that will benefit me in a way that when I look back, I will see the strength I didn’t think I have and know that I'm better because of it.
I hope, every single day, that I can do that for you too.
As your partner, as your *life partner,*
I will always strive to make your life better and easier just as you’ll do for mine.
If you’re not taking care of yourself,
I will still make you food to eat and make sure you have what you need to sleep at night.
If something is wrong,
I will still be an ear to listen and a heart to guide.
I’m still yours.
I’m your partner.
I’m still a reflection of who you love and what that love means.
