I have spent countless hours thinking about you and wanting to know everything about you, anything, maybe even just your name. You are special to me, precious to me, and so important to me that sometimes you're all I want. There's so much to tell you and so much I want to do with you, but my first thing to tell you is this; I love you.

I should also tell you is that I have been praying for you. I have asked God for many things in my life, the first being forgiveness, but I have prayed hard for many things; the health and safety of family and friends, a chance at life for a very sick little kid, and you. I am not perfect, but God is working on me. The same is true for you, but since you're mine and I am yours, I will believe that every dark and stormy road has led me straight to you.

Every single rough road, every down, every time I've wanted to stay down I have gotten up and dusted myself off. While it seems like it's been easy, it has been a long, broken journey that has led me to you. Please understand that we will have some bad days and an abundance of great days, but we can tackle it all as long as we have each other.

We may even be tackling each other's demons, and I will ruthlessly tackle every single one of yours if it means that you'll also help with mine. We can do anything and conquer everything with help from each other, God and our families. The darkness will never truly matter as long as I am in your arms, wrapped up in you.

There are so many things that I can't wait to share with you, and so many new experiences that you will bring. I am ready for the adventures that we'll go on and the ones we'll create. I promise to be a patient wife, to cook, to be faithful, to be loyal, and to always have your back. I can certainly tell you that we'll spend time with both your family and mine and all of our friends. I promise to fight with you, but never against you. I pray that we never go to bed angry, and that we can work things out in a peaceful way. I also promise to never lie to you (unless it's about a surprise party or presents). You are everything I've ever wanted, and I hope I'm all you'll ever need. How funny would it be if I've known you my whole life?

I want you to know that no matter where you are right now, no matter who you're with, I hope that you're OK and that you're happy. You deserve to have everything, no matter how big or small, that the world can give you. There are so many things I can't wait to experience with you, but laughing until we cry and cooking together are things you can certainly look forward to. I can't wait to meet you and travel with you, but most of all, I cannot wait to fall in love with you.

Maybe I know you or maybe I don't quite know you yet, but I am so happy to have you. I'm happy to be able to love you and get to know you and have a life with you. I hope you love me as much as I love you. Even if we don't know each other yet, know that I love you and that above all else, I'm praying for you.
