I don’t need a perfect love story. I want the kind of love that shows up on random Tuesdays, keeps its promises, and laughs with me when life gets messy.
Thank you for loving me in a way that makes me softer without making me smaller.
I love the life we’re building — the private jokes, the shared standards, the small rituals that make us feel like us.
I don’t want grand gestures. I want the kind of love that keeps showing up: honest, kind, and slightly ridiculous.
