Do you realize how special you are? How much of an impact you have had in my life? How intelligent you are? How funny you are? How kind and beautiful you are? How gentle your soul is?

I just want to say thank you.

Thank you for coming into my life when you did. I am so grateful to have you. Thank you for choosing me. I'm really happy you did.

You make me feel wanted. You make me feel whole. You really make me feel like every inch of me is so beautiful. And I am so so appreciative of that. Thank you for showing me that love is so much more than a feeling.

Whether you are surrounded by friends or family members you always make me feel like I belong. That I am a part of everything that is going on. Such a beautiful characteristic to have.Thank you for treating me like I am so special.

Thank you for believing in me. Nursing school is no joke and having you right by my side is worth so much more. Every time I'm down you tell me that I can do this.You tell me that I got this and not to worry. You've been such a wonderful support system for me and I couldn't do everything I do without you.

Thank you for respecting my boundaries and being so patient with me. I know we have both gone through heartbreak. I know I get scared sometimes and I'm sure it's obvious but it is not your fault. Please don't ever feel guilty. I was terrified to let someone in and I know I break down sometimes. But thank you for being there when I do. I don't want to let the pain of the past affect us. I will try my hardest not to let this happen.

Thank you for making feel safe. Thank you for protecting me.Thank you for shielding me of all the bad you see. I appreciate it but you know I am here for you. Just like you are here for me. We're going to be okay.

You've taught me so many things about life in this short time we've spent together. You've taught me how to live life in the moment. You've taught me to take things day by day. You've taught me how to be polite. You'e taught me how to stay calm when everything seemed to be breaking around me. You've taught me how to keep my mind open. Open to the ideas of others and their perspectives. Not to judge them, but to listen and be kind.

You make me want be a better person. You make me feel like I can do anything that I can be anything. And I want you right there with me when I succeed. When I reach my goals and aspirations I want you there and I want to be there for yours too. I hope everything that you aspire to be comes true.

I think it's so important for you to know that I don't see this as a short term thing. It's not some mediocre love. It's real. I want to be in your future. I want to say "I do" someday and I want it to be with you. I know we'll face some challenges but we will get through it.

But most importantly thank you for being you and thank you for all the memories we've shared together. I know there's many more to come.

Thank you for loving me. I promise I will always love you.
