To my boyfriend:

I am writing this for you to tell you the one thing I sometimes forget to say-- thank you. You came into my life 3 years ago and changed it for the better. I do not know what I would do without you. You are there whenever I need you and you make me laugh when I am upset. You make me happy. You are such a wonderful person. You are so kind to everyone you meet and you never fail to make me smile.

Thank you for not complaining when I take seven million pictures just because I didn't like my hair in the first one. Thank you for the laughs and the names that you call me that make me laugh anytime I hear them. Thank you for being the first person I tell everything to and the last person I say goodnight to. Thank you for always making sure I feel comfortable in any situation. You always know just what I need and always brighten up my day. Thank you for always making me food, because let's be honest, we all know I can't cook. Thank you for making each day an adventure. I know I drive you nuts at times but I couldn't ask for a better person to be with. Thank you for the nights where I want to go out but you know that staying in once in a while isn't so bad. Thank you for teaching me patience and to see the best in every situation.

Most of all, thank you for being you. It's easy to call you my boyfriend but you are so much more than that. You're my partner in crime, pillow, my confidant, my support system and most of all, my best friend. Wherever life takes us, I am so eternally grateful I get to spend every day as another adventure with you.
