To my love


 Dearest Christopher,

  Today marks the anniversary of our seventh year together.
 It is a joyous occasion and a sad one all at the same time. Joyous because we have had the pleasure of one another's companionship since we were in our teens, sad because we almost didn't make it this far. This summer has been the hardest time in both of our young lives, a time when each of us lost something most important to the other. We lost a closeness and a trust that was always there before and allowed other people to come between us, which is something we both vowed never to do. It happened though and so now we must learn to move forward. A piece of my heart still is lost, floating somewhere in a distant dream when I was still seventeen and the most beautiful girl you had ever witnessed. Those are memories that I shall treasure long after death, for they have seeped past flesh and bone and gone straight through to my spirit, thank you, for them love. Our beloved daughter as well is something I must thankyou for, for long after we have left this world our light will still flourish in her deep blue eyes and she will carry us on in some small but significant way.
 Still even through everything, I love you more than when we first were together, I love you more than that time of passion and infatuation when the only people alive were us two. You are still the angel of my dreams, and I still swear that I saw your face in my deep sleep before you arrived. You were the one I was waiting for my entire life when a little dark haired girl played the princess to an invisible prince. I want us now so badly to get through this, the hardest time in our lives to become even closer than we were before. I need you, our daughter needs you. You are my cherished one, to hold, to love, to make love with. You are my gift from the beyond, my chosen, my betrothed and love forever I shall. No matter what happens to us that is one vow that lies unbroken and its pieces whole as a freshly polished pane. May we become an inspiration to our child and perhaps future children and show them what hard work and dedication to one another can accomplish. You are and have always been my everything.
Happy seven years baby....

   Love Always and forever,
    Sarah
