Its pretty crazy to think neither of us started off here in Canada, you in Mexico, & I in England. For both our families to end up here in Summerland, could it be coincidence, could it be fate?
Kismet ..
I will always stand by this when I say, that when I saw you for the very first time, I knew there was something about you. I didn't know if it was just because you made me weak at the knees, or because my heart was beating faster than ever before, or could it have been the uncontrollable butterflies in my tummy? I guess a part of me just knew, we were simply meant to be <3
We were too young to be looking for love. But it happened. The man who won my heart at sixteen will always have it.
To be or not to be?
I was nothing short of a crumbling fool the night I told you I was pregnant, & keeping it. I never thought you would change my life like that. My heart held so much love for you but suddenly I had someone else, someone so precious to protect & love, I wondered to myself if we would get through it together. So suddenly our young love had come to an end.
When our son came blazing into our lives, I fell in love with you all over again. It was such an amazing feeling to know what love at first sight truly felt like, & then to look at you, the man who gave him to me & feel even more love than I've ever felt before.
<3
This journey we are on together hasn't always been easy. But what I know today, it is worth it, it is better to face it together. Our relationship is strong in tough times as well as happy times.
I said YES!
" Jessica .. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I love you, more than you'll ever know. Will you marry me? "
I remember feeling sublimely happy! Never in my life had I been more optimistic, happier, more hopeful for our future, or felt more beautiful. It was perfect. I am marrying my best friend, my lover, my baby daddy (; my everything rolled into one <3 YOU.
To have & to hold.
Right now, the only thing that I'm really sure about .. is that I love you, & nothing would make me happier than spending the rest of my life with you, Larry.
I look forward to the day I'm old & grey with you & we're RV'ing round Canada together, making the most of every moment. & when that is all too much, we will rock in our chairs, side by side, hand in hand, till the very end.
If you jump, I jump, remember?
You know I don't have a religious bone in my body, but I do believe that when we are gone we will meet again, in our special place, in our prime & my heart will go on <3.
Larry, be my Valentine?
