Dear Love,

     I am incredibly blessed to have met you. The chances of you being born in America and your family moving back to Sweden... Then me traveling to Sweden and randomly meeting you at institute?? So random. 
     Loving you has been completely natural! With our long distance relationship we HAVE to communicate. In fact, that's all we can do! And we have been able to trust each other and build a strong relationship that way, having to completely cut out the physical part. When we get married... we would have been apart physically for a grand total of 9.5 months. Physically we've spent... 6 weeks together :) And that seems to amaze people! I don't even think about that being a short time. I've never truly understood the statement, "When the relationship is right, you know." BUT I happened to meet you. Then I understood how people can get married so quickly! Everything felt so whole and complete. I finally met someone that accepted ALL my love I have to give.
     I absolutely love how much you care for people. You are always friendly, even if you are having a hard time. 
     I also love your eyes :) you have the light of Christ in your eyes, and the pureness of your soul shines through.
     I love when we are skyping, and you want to hurry and look something up on the internet. While you are concentrating, you stick your tongue out and randomly bite your lip. 
     I love it when I say something, and that word reminds you of a song. THEN you randomly burst into song, and it takes me a few moments to realize what I said to make you sing. 
     I love how well you know the scriptures... you are constantly teaching me something new about them!!!
     I love how much you respect me, and support/encourage me to do things I believe in. 
    When I am having a bad day, you know how to lift me up when I am down. 
     I love it when you call me beautiful, even if I don't believe you. 
     I love how you inspire me to become a better person.
     I love your family, and the love they show towards me. I feel oh so welcomed into your family, and I haven't even (physically) met the majority of them yet!!! Ok. Soooo I probably haven't met about 98% of them. But still :)
     I love how well you get along with my family. You fit in perfectly!!!
     I love your patience. I always tell you a time I will be ready to skype, and I'm usually late. Annnnd you're always sitting there patiently waiting for me :) 
     

Well my dear Joel. I can NOT wait for June 14th :) You mean the world to me!!!
