To my love. My wonderful love, this is not a note to confess how much I adore you. I try to tell you every day how much you mean to me. How your smile makes me melt, your voice warms my (previously cold robot) heart, or how a simple gesture like holding your hand feels like the best thing in the world. I’m writing you a love note to remind you that you are a strong, kind and brave woman. The last week has been particularly challenging and rough and unfair, but you will get through this. I’ll always be here for you. You’re my co-pilot and my partner in life and I wouldn’t have it any other way. —Your biggest fan
