miss emma.

dear dream man,
it sure is taking you a long time to find me. but it's okay, i guess i need to work on my patience anyway. i know that the wait will be worth it in the end.
i understand you're busy right now preparing for our life together. whether you're on a mission, in school, or building your career, thanks for working hard for me. your work ethic and desire to take care of me is one of the many qualities i adore about you.
thank you for supporting me in all of my endeavors. thanks for telling me that i can go to law school, and i can be a practicing lawyer, and i can be a super mom, and i can be the best wife ever. you bring out the best in me because you encourage me to maximize my potential.
thank you for being honest with me. i appreciate that you never speak empty words; you say things that you mean. and thank you for following up your words with your actions. you know that i listen to your actions more than your words, and i appreciate you following through with what you say.
thank you for respecting me. i love that you understand i'm a daughter of God, the crown jewel of his creation. thanks for treating me accordingly. for being chivalrous, for respecting my body and my mind, for speaking to me with care.
thank you for honoring your priesthood. thank you for setting an example for me and for our future children. thank you for studying your scriptures every night, for fulfilling your church calling, for helping me on my book of mormon quizzes. you are my rock, and i know that you can take me and our family to the celestial kingdom.
thank you for loving me unconditionally. thanks for forgiving me when i overreact or use a swear word. i know i'm not perfect, but i'm working on it, and you make me better.
well, i'm going to go now. i'm ready for you when it's right.
i love you,
emma
