The more I know about you, the more I find to love. You create great extremes in my emotions; I feel so alive in your presence. I have become so very close to you, connected and sure. As I learn to give you more of my heart, to open more deeply to you, my love grows even stronger.

In the few short months I've known you, my whole life has changed. You lift me, inspire me; you bring me much joy. You touch me and hold me; you make me a happy boy. You have become my one and only, my shining star, my lush forest, my endless tides. I love you with all that I am, and in you, with you, I become more - so the me that loves you with all that I am today, will love you even more tomorrow.

God has blessed me, answering my prayer, sending you to me. You strengthen my faith; you are my kind teacher, my constant friend, the lamp in my lighthouse. Walking with you, I learn to lean, to trust, to be, to love, with the divine and perfect grace of our God.

I thank God every day for you, Joddy. I love you completely. I vow to love you forever. Thank you for accepting my humble gift. May it always signify our deep and sacred love.
