Feeling sentimental...

You’re asleep right now, taking a nap before work. You kept fighting so hard to stay awake, to stay with me. I think, if I hadn’t had to go into my sessions, you’d have fallen asleep while we were still talking. Maybe one day, we can do that. And, I hope, very soon, you’ll be able to fall asleep beside me for good. I know that, in less than three weeks, you’ll be here in my arms, at least for a little while. We’ve got all sorts of things planned, but, more than anything, I just want to hold you again. Well, and kiss you, but I figure that goes without saying. 

We’ve been through so much since we met, so many wonderful things, so many difficult things. It’s hard to remember, at times, my world without you, not that I’d ever try very hard to do so. My world with you is such a brighter, more wondrous place. I feel a bit as though I should be writing something of substance here, but, just now, all I feel is love, and a deep longing to be with you, so that’ll have to suffice. Now and then, I think it’s okay to put down the big, heavy stuff and just love one another. That is, after all, what’s at the root of all of this, isn’t it? Love. And I do love you, my sweet girl, more than I’ve ever loved anyone. You are my happy ending, just beginning. Thank you for sharing this world, this life, with me.
