Megan-

I never realized the girl who would come in late, always claiming to come from swimming to driving school would end up being so close to me.

Now that you're here, it'd be crazy if you left. "I go where you go" and you've truly made that promise. I adore you in all the greatest ways, your sense of humor, your comfortability with me, the way you put yourself out there, your odd-ball sense of personality, and your compassion for somoeone like me. You have told me outright all the things that could make somebody melt, and you're never afraid to admit that or stand up for me. Our relationship growing has been the best thing for me this year, and it's all because of you.

You make for great memories, you remind me how great it is to get to know someone completely new, and you respect all the choices I've made and do make. You don't give me crap, but better yet, help me to make better decisions. You have a great way of making people laugh, but you still show me your calm, caring side, and it's something I greatly admire.

Yes, you are so strong, you don't have to do much to prove that to me. You keep the people important to you close, and the memories of them closer. You are someone I look up to. I don't idealize you, because you are the best you I could ever meet. I don't have regrets about you, it's been the best choice ever. I don't hope, wish, or doubt, because I know in my heart you care.

So thank you, for giving me reassurance, for loving me, accepting me, enjoying life with me, changing me. These are the moments I won't ever forget.

I love you so much, and will always keep you close to my heart.
