Other things you should know...

Dear Love,

Other things that you should probably know about me is I am extreme animal lover, I have a dog and she is essentially my child and I love her to pieces even though she drives me crazy.  She sleeps with me every night because I don't feel as lonely with her curled up next to me.  I also have a great love of hallmark movies and almost any romantic comedy.  They almost always make me cry.  It's kind of ridiculous, but still true none the less.  I am insanely almost annoyingly family oriented.  They are so very important to me.  I find that when I am away from them I tend to miss them tremendously.  I call my mom at least weekly, sometimes daily.  Mostly, because she is the one I tell my stories.  When life throws me curveballs and when I can't handle what the Lord has placed in my lap, I tend to desire to talk to her and get her guidance.  I love children and am super excited to be a mom.  I want a quiver full of kids.  (Know your bible and you will get that reference).  I hope you like kids too.  I want to work as a nurse for the rest of my life, but I desire more to stay home with my kids.  Please don't ask me to work full time, while I am raising our kids.  Because I will be submitted to you, but I will miss my kids every second I am at work.  I am still and probably will forever be a hopeless romantic, even though I had a relationship end very badly, quite awfully actually.  I still believe in romance and I want to you to be a gentleman and treat me like a lady.  Because even though I can get down and dirty with the boys, I enjoy dressing up and going out too.  I think that is probably enough for now.  I stayed up late, watching an adorable hallmark movie, instead of sleeping like a sane person.  That is the kind of irresponsible behavior you can probably expect from me.

I can't wait to meet you!

To My Future Husband

Dear Love,

I don't know if I have met you yet.  Here are a few things you should know.  I cannot wait to meet you and am excited for our life together.  Please forgive me my past for I did not always do it like I wish I had.  I want to live a life that is pleasing to the Lord and I pray that you are a man that will love me like God loves me and forgive me my past and challenge me in the future.  I am frequently wrong, but will try to play it off like I'm right.  I will do my best to see life for all it's possibilities instead of getting stuck on the small stuff.  I will try to best to be God focused, but sometimes have CADD (Christianity Attention Deficit Disorder), and focus on things of this world instead of God.  Please help remain focused on God as far as I know the only medical treatment for this disorder is reading my Bible.  So I ask you to hold me accountable as God and my mother do.  To keep me honest and help me focus on Him and not on myself. ....  For this time being that is all I have.  I love you and cannot wait to meet you.   May your day be blessed and keep me in your prayers as I am keeping you.  I am about to get on a plane from P-town back to SA.  Pray for safe travels.

Good Bye for now Love,
C
