Hi sweetheart. I am currently praying about you, and for you, and just wanted to write you a letter, kind of explaining to you who I am, and how that relates to how our life will be together one day.
I want kids. At least two or three of my own, and then I want to adopt at least one….. Adoption has been on my heart for many years now, and I feel like you have felt that as well. I know you aren’t freaking out right now, because the Lord has set a love in your heart for children, and plus you’ll love me no matter how many kids I want.
I want to be a stay at home mom. Not for my entire life, just at least for the first couple years of our first child’s life. I want our children to know how much they are loved by how much their mom cares about them, and placing them in front of her career.
On that note, I want you to chase your dreams. If you want to be in school for 12 years to be a doctor, do it. If you want to travel the country and be a news reporter, do it. If you want to be a teacher to help form/impact children’s minds, DO IT. All I want is for you to be happy, and not feel like you have to have a boring desk job that you have to have just to provide.
I am going to steal your clothes; and yes, I will wear them, so make sure you have some you won't care if I wear.
I have anxiety and depression, so be ready to comfort me and calm me down and just be there for me whenever I need someone.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE to travel, and hope you do too, because we’re going to be doing a lot of it. Possibly even moving out of the country to wherever The Lord calls us.
Lastly, I want to thank you for being the man of my dreams. I know I have some pretty high standards, so thank you for living up to them.
If you only get one thing out of this letter, just know I love you now, and will love you unconditionally forever.
xoxo,
Your future wife,
Emily.
