MY DEAREST KEVIN
IN 8 MORE DAYS WE WILL BE MARRIED AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT THE LAST 8 YEARS HAVE BEEN THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE. WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH TOGETHER, YOU'VE HELD MY HAND THROUGH STRUGGLES WITH THE KIDS, AND SURGERIES AND MOST OF ALL THROUGH THE DEATH OF MY DAD. YOU'VE LOVED ME UNCONDITIONALLY AND ACCEPTED ME AND MY BOYS INTO YOUR LIFE AND NEVER FOR 1 DAY THOUGHT OF ANYONE BUT THE 3 OF US AND TAKING CARE OF US. OUR FAMILY HAS GROWN WITH 2 GRANDBABIES AND AS i WATCH YOU WITH THEM I KNOW THIS IS WHERE MY LIFE WAS MEANT TO BE. GOD BROUGHT YOU TO US AND IT HAS BEEN THE BIGGEST BLESSING WE'VE HAD IN OUR LIFE. YOU ARE THE FATHER THE BOYS NEVER HAD AND THE FRIEND AND LOVE I ALWAYS WANTED. WE'VE HAD ROUGH TIMES AS MOST PEOPLE DO BUT YOU NEVER GAVE UP ON ME. I'M NOT THE EASIEST PERSON TO LIVE WITH BUT YOU ALWAYS STOOD BY ME NO MATTER WHAT I WAS GOING THROUGH. MOST MEN WOULD HAVE THROWN IN THE TOWEL BUT YOU NEVER LEFT MY SIDE. A FEW WEEKS BEFORE MY DAD BECAME SO SICK I TOLD YOU I DIDNT WANT HIM TO GIVE ME AWAY AT THE WEDDING BECAUSE WE NEVER GOT ALONG AND YOU STOOD FIRM AND TOLD ME HE WAS THE ONE WHO SHOULD BE THERE I WAS MAD AT YOU AT FIRST BECAUSE I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW I FELT AND THEN HE BECAME SICK..YOU HELPED ME THROUGH HIS ILLNESS BY STEPPING BACK AND LETTING ME CONCENTRATE ON MAKING AMENDS WITH HIM AND WHEN HE PASSED I WAS A BETTER PERSON WHO LOVED MY DAD AND RESPECTED HIM BECAUSE OF YOUR GUIDANCE. YOU ENCOURAGED ME TO MOVE ON TO ANOTHER JOB ALTHOUGH I WAS SO AFRAID OF BEING UNEMPLOYED AND NOW I AM AT A PLACE WHERE I AM HAPPY WITH MY JOB AND LOVE GOING TO WORK EVERYDAY, YOUR MY SHOULDER TO LEAN ON, MY ENCOURAGING WORD TO HELP ME MAKE THINGS BETTER IN MY LIFE BUT MOST IMPORTANT YOU ARE MY BEST FRIEND, MY LOVE AND MY SOUL MATE. SO AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE WEDDING AND SPENDING THE REST OF OUR LIVES TOGETHER I WANT TO THANK YOU. I WANT TO SPEND THE REST OF MY DAYS WAKING UP WITH YOU BESIDE ME. WITH YOU MAKING ME LAUGH WITH THE QUIRKY THINGS YOU SAY AND DO SOMETIMES, YOU GIVE ME SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO AT THE END OF EVERY DAY. I LOVE YOU WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE AND EVERYTHING I AM AND FEEL SO BLESSED YOU CAME INTO MY LIFE
ALWAYS AND FOREVER BABE
