ABCs


While Sam and I were still dating, he wrote "The ABCs of why I love Emily." This was so precious to me.

A. A is for Amazing! I’ve never heard someone that when they said something was amazing actually meant it. I didn’t think amazing was a very expressive word before but now I know that it can be used to describe the most amazing girl in the world, in the truest sense of the word.
B. B is for Beautiful. We’ve had this discussion many, many times. In you I see the most beautiful girl in the world, and it’s not just physical beauty that you have, your beauty is both outer and inner. You are such an amazing person and I strive to be worthy to deserve you every day.
C. C is for Considerate. You are always concerned about making sure the other people’s needs are taken care of. You are more concerned that you are being a good roommate, good sister, good girlfriend than you are about your own comfort, and I love that about you.
D. D is for Dream Girl. You are my dream girl, every trait that I’ve ever hoped my girlfriend/future wife would have you do. No one would be more perfect for me than you.
E. E is for Exquisite. You are wonderful, there is a certain amount of delicacy to you that I love, the Dictionary said this word can be applied to flowers, music and or poetry. Things as beautiful as that pale in comparison to you.
F. F is for Fine. I know there are some of these things that are some what repetitive as far as commentaries on your physical appearance, but each has a slightly different connotation, and fine has always been a favorite of mine, just meaning that are almost beyond beautiful.
G. G is for Gorgeous. Before knowing you I placed gorgeous as slightly more pretty than beautiful, but after meeting you I realized that beautiful has a little bit more classy of a meaning whereas gorgeous maybe is a little more specific to the time and not as enduring. I don’t know if I feel that way, but I do know that the thought of waking up and seeing your face every morning for the rest of my life is a prospect that makes me very happy.
H. H is for Helpful. You are always wanting to help others and when there is no one there to do the things that other people don’t want to do, you fill in without even thinking. Amazing!
I. I is for Intelligent. You are so much smarter and intelligent than you think you are. You have so many insights to offer to any conversation if you would just be more confident that what you have to say has value. I love you and always love hearing your thoughts on everything.
J. J is for Jovial. I know that this word is sometimes associated with fatness, that connotation does not apply here by any stretch of the imagination. It applies to the fact that you are always so full of energy and excitement. You are always so happy, and it is wonderful.
K. K is for Kind. In you I see a lot of kindness, I know that you aren’t the most comfortable around small children, but I could see when you became less scared of Nora that you will be a very good mother and be able to work very well with children.
L. L is for Lovely. You have a smile that lights up the room. When you smile, the world is right in my eyes and I’m happy. I love being the source of your happiness, I always want to be a bright spot in your life.
M. M is for Merry. Because you seem to have the spirit of Christmas and giving all the time. You love getting nice things for people. I love the way that you are always trying to give meaningful gifts to people on their birthdays that show that you know them well and care about their happiness.
N. N is for Natural. You are so naturally beautiful. I love that you can look beautiful all the time no matter what. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever met.
O. O is for Organized. You are by far the most organized person I have ever met. I have never met someone that makes so many lists, and because of how disorganized I am, you are perfect for me. Once again, it is clear that my weaknesses are your strengths, and it is wonderful to have you.
P. P is for Precious. You are so precious to me, and the fact that both of us used that word in the way that we do completely independent of each other is truly precious, and just further points to the fact that you were meant for me, and I was meant for you.
Q. Q is for Quizzical. You have a thirst for knowledge that is unquenchable. When you want to know something you find someone that knows and you ask immediately. That is wonderful, and a great way to live, because you will always be seeking for answers.
R. R is for respectful. You have such a strong respect for people in positions of authority. This is a great attribute, because I have a little bit of rebel in me, and so you are to perfect complement to me. I love you.
S. S is for sexy. I won’t go into that that much, but suffice it to say I doubt physical chemistry and attraction will ever be an issue in our relationship unless I become more repulsive than I already am.
T. T is for Trustworthy. I know when we talk about our deepest, darkest secrets, your roommates won't be hearing about it when I leave.
U. U is for Unique. I have never met someone as special as you. You are the complete package.
V. V is for Vigorous. Your energy for life and love are astounding. Being with you has acted as a pure adrenaline rush.
W. W is for Well-rounded. You are able to keep up with me and keep me satisfied in so many aspects.
X. X is for XOXO. I think that means repetitive hugs and kisses. That is what I want to do every time we are together or apart.
Y. Y is for Youthful. Don't think of this as a bad thing. If anything, your youthfulness makes you more pliant, humble, and willing to change in order to make me happy.
Z. Z is for Zany. Let's be honest, you are a little off the wall sometimes. I love it. I love being able to enjoy your energy.
