Dearest lovely bed,

I don't even know where to start. I have left you for college, but now I am back. I missed you a lot. I'm sure you felt lonely the past nine months. I'm sorry. This isn't what this letter is about. I would like to remind you why you are so amazing.

Thank you for being big enough for me to actually move during the night. You are a queen size and I'm glad you're big. You are so much better to sleep on than my bed in college. I can sleep across you and I don't have to stay bunched up all night. I can fit two people on you and still have room, it is truly amazing. When I saw you for the first time I ran and jumped on you because I was so happy to see you. You have no idea.

I know I'm lazy. I lay in you for hours at a time. I spill food on you or maybe a drink. I'm sorry, I will wash you. Eventually. I am usually watching Netflix. I know I should be doing other things but I never want to leave you. You are just so warm and comfy. Why would I leave when outside is freezing? Maybe because I am crazy and live in Minnesota.

I am literally sitting in bed while writing this. I do almost everything in bed. I eat, read, watch TV, and yes, even think about life all while relaxing on you. I'm so thankful that you never judge me for all the times I cry and laugh until I can't breathe into your covers. You have heard conversations no one else should ever hear. You are literally my best friend. You understand me better than anyone. I could marry you if that was acceptable in today's society.

You always accept other people to sleep with you as well. I know it is a lot of weight on you but my friends need a place to sleep as well. Thank you for being big enough for me and my friends to sleep. I know we keep you up all night with our talks and our late-night cravings. Again, I'm sorry for all the crumbs that stay there for weeks at a time. For all the tears we have shared together about leaving for college and finals, you were there.

You are also where I can keep clean clothes when I don't want to put them away. Mostly because I don't have time to put them away. You can hold all my papers and books on them while I try to study for a test. You can do so many things. I don't think you realize how important you are to me. So I just want to say I love you and I would be really tired if you weren't in my life.

So, on a final note, I want you to know that I appreciate you everything you do for me. You always welcome me with an open spot. You are always there after a long day and when I just need a three-hour cat nap. Thank you for being you. I love you.

Love,

Your owner/ companion
