Dear Mr. Long Relationships,
Christmas has come so fast for us, it seems, and yet also at just the right pace. This past year has been so monumental for us, it’s no wonder we greet Christmas and the break that comes with it with eagerness.
Last Christmas was filled with all the awkwardness of not only our first Christmas face to face, but also the awkwardness of my first few months living with you. This year we celebrate having overcome many battles and discovered many things about each other.
This is our first Christmas as a married couple. I still remember our May wedding, especially given that I woke up this Christmas Eve to the same weather we had on our day. Melbourne is a fussy one when it comes to the weather.
We also celebrate this Christmas with joy in my successes as a book reviewer, a writer, and more. We also celebrate your second Christmas with the company you work with.
You have done so much for me over this past year that, as I look at my presents for you, I feel like they are completely inadequate in showing you how much I care for you and love you.
You’re not an easy man to buy for. Haha.
But then I look at our little tree on top of the television and our little gathering of presents for each other, and I know we have such a good thing between us. Presents and Christmas spirit be psshed because we have a good, loving relationship no matter what time of the year.
I love you now more than ever, sweet man. You bring out the best and me and make me feel like I can accomplish great things. For that, I love you utterly and completely, and I want to help make all your dreams come true.
I wish you a very happy Christmas, my love. I’m looking forward to many more.
Love,
me

What a lovely Christmas present… Love you too.
The best part of this was watching you blush as I read this.
