I used to hide the pain.
Now there is no pain.
I used to love for a desperate cause.
Now my love is pure.
One year ago Jared Weikum asked me to be his.
I didn't know much then about where I'd be now.
But here I am.
This smile is real ya'll.
He's that boy I never expected, but always prayed for.
He's more than a breath of fresh air on the coldest of nights...
He's my light in the morning and my warmth in the summer.
I think of finding a place by the lake to watch the sunrise last fall...
I think of walking in his big snowy footprints this winter...
then going for a walk to spend a few minutes together this next spring...
then I'll be going for a drive to visit Kansas City as often as I can...
then being there for whatever comes next.
I love you always babe.
