Week 4: A Letter to your Siblings

Dear you,

I love you. You are going to grow up to be the most amazing man the world has ever seen. You are young but so wise. The smallest things completely make your day! I miss you. I miss getting Burger King Icee's with you. I love how sad you are to see me leave after I have visited. Your sadness shows me how much you love me. You are so creative and full of ideas. You are a thinker and you question everything. You love arguing and you need reasons. You have all kinds of fears and reservations, but I know that you will soon overcome those as you grow older and engulf the world around you. I pray for you all the time. I pray for your future and for your future wife and for yyour future children. I know that God has huge plans for you and I hope that he blesses you with an incredibly beautiful, understanding, and adventurous woman of God to fill your life with happiness. I hope your children cause you as much trouble as you have caused! They will be great! They will be so full of life, just like you. I love you little brother! Grow big and strong and give me a huge hug when I get home to you! I miss you so much.

Love,
me

Week 3: A Letter to your Parents

Dear you,

I cannot even begin to count how many times you have saved me. I could not have gotten any better parents than the two of you. I love you so much! Dad, you are so strong and protective. Thank you for loving me so much that you chose to protect me from all kinds of evil that comes from dating and relationships. Thank you for not letting me go out with just any boy. I really respect you and your approval. When I find that guy I will be with forever, I hope that you will love him like your own son. You are the only person I would want to give me away. Mommy, I love you! You are my best friend and my confidant. I know you miss me when I am gone and I miss you too. I miss your hugs that make every day better and the long talks on my bed. Sometimes I wish I could go back and experience it all over again. I know I would value those dear moments so much more. I wish I would have listened to you more than I did. I have made some regrettable mistakes and learned some lessons that you warned me against. I am sorry for not listening to your advice and your guidance. I know now that it was for my own good. I miss you both and I love you both more than words can say. I hope life is good and I hope you are more in love with each other than ever. Appreciate the amazing love God has given you to experience together in relationship. Never forget how much love.

Love,
me

Week 2: A Letter to your Crush

Dear you,

I don't know what it is about you, I just can't get over how wonderful you are. I love that you're so sweet and you are willing to stay up just to help me understand for a test the next day. You are so incredibly smart and I love that you're proud that you're a nerd. I like that I find it so easy to talk to you. I know that you don't think that anyone would ever want to go on a date with you, but I would like that. I would really like that. I think you deserve that. You are such a great person, I wish other people could see that. I wish you would allow other people to see that. I see it. I hope we can continue to grow in friendship and just a heads up, I'm planning on asking you to go to formal with me. I really hope you'll say yes.

Love,
me
