the first christmas of many to come. i'm thankful you stumbled into my life on that weird halloween weekend and you haven't left yet. i know things have been strained lately but i want you to know that i am still madly in love with you. i'm still grateful for you and for us. i'm still lucky that it's me you choose to wake up and go to sleep next to every day. thank you for putting up with me, sticking by me, and for doing this crazy thing with me. i love you.
