Dear self (14 years ago today)....

Dear self,

Today you are young and in love.

You have no idea what the future will hold, but you know you will have him by your side. You will live life as one and navigate the good and bad together. It won't always be easy, but what part of life is truly fulfilling if it is merely easy.

Today you are young and in love.

There will be lots of laughs, I'm talking every single day you will laugh together. You will share experiences that you didn't really know could or should involve laughter. Your love will be diagnosed with brain cancer. It sounds scary and at times it will be, but you will get through it...together. You will laugh and grow deeper in love through it all.

Today you are young and in love.

Enjoy the day. It is a celebration! In 14 years you will be a little older and a little wiser. You are so very much in love. You have a lot to appreciate and be grateful for...and you have so much to look forward to. I have a feeling in a lot of ways, we've only just begun.

Today you are young and in love - and I wouldn't want you any other way.

Until next time,
Love, Life, & Ice Cream
