Love Letters

Dear J,
  In one month, almost exactly to the minute (let's add in that extra minute or two because you know my family runs late), I will be walking down the aisle towards you. I will be rocking my amazing dress (thank you SIL Mags) and my sassy shoes and my pretty veil on the arm of my mom, a woman who has made me the woman I am today. And I will be so excited! Will I be crying? Will I be nervous? Or will all I only see your face? And will you be crying? Will you be nervous? Looks like I'll find out soon enough.
  I love you more today than I did yesterday than I did the day before that. I can still remember the catch in your voice when you got down on your knee and asked me "do you want to spend the rest of our lives together?" and I cried and said "Ohmygod!" That was a yes, by the way. I can remember the zing I felt the first time I saw you (sorry about those snaps on your shirt). I still get that zing.
 People ask me if I'm nervous. I'm not nervous about the wedding, we've got that in the bag. And if things get messed up, I'm not really that concerned about the details. Because ultimately, I just need you, the priest and two witnesses. After that, it's easy-breezy. I am nervous about the marriage. You know me, I don't handle change that well and this is change and something BIG and NEW and all that, so please bear with me. I'm 100% positive you and I can get through this together.
  I love you, J.
Love,
 M

Yay!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it's so close! You're gonna do great, and the foundation you already have with J will carry you through the first year craziness. Just think, you already know whether or not he SNORES. Biggest hurdle already cleared!! :)
