“

Your arms feel like home, and I still have your heart.

“

My love for you is both incredibly simple and complex at the same time.

“

I love you. I love the way you show your intelligence in the small moments of life.

“

Most of all, I want to say thank you.

“

I cannot put into words the way my universe shifted after you came in it. I have experienced every day and everything much more intensely.

“

I understand you. You feel things a lot. You feel things deeply.

“

I know I don’t always say how I’m feeling because I have a nasty habit of keeping my heart guarded, but I hope you realize how much I care about you.

“

You think I’ve abandoned you—but you are my creation—I will never leave you.

“

I know I’m not easy to love but when I love, I love hard, I fully give my all.

“

We both realized that we have no control over your arrival. These first 20 weeks have flown by and apparently the next 20 go even faster according to all of the people who have driven this road before. This makes me want to write to you about the idea of time.
