September 30th

Dear Copper,

I know you occasionally have your doubts about whether or not we will last. Yes, things will get harder over time and no, it won't always be wine and roses. A marriage isn't always meant to be easy, and that's what makes it so special. In agreeing to marry you, I am choosing you to be my forever and always... and that's quite a long time. We are making a commitment to not only each other, but to ourselves as well, that we will stick things out thick and thin. I promise to not always like you, but I do promise to always love you. That will never change.

Love,

Fox

Dear Copper,

I showed you a slideshow of pictures of us put to music tonight and it made you feel really sentimental and happy... It makes me feel so special to know how much you love me.

Love,

Fox

September 27th

Dear Copper,

I was watched the Little Mermaid tonight and thought one thing...

If you and I had been in that grotto together on one of our first dates, you totally would have just kissed me right then and there. That's because we have what Disney calls "true love." When you know, you know.

Love,

Fox

Dear Copper,

You're packing for Columbia right now and are super excited to pack your special socks... This is why I love you.

I love you. A lot. Just thought you should know.

Also, I've officially known you for over 500 days (501 as of today)! Here's to many more...

September 23rd

Dear Copper,

If in your old age you fall and break both your wrists, I will be the one to wipe your behind.

I love you that much.

Love,

Fox

September 22nd

Dear Copper,

Even just seeing you for an hour today made a world of difference... I miss you too much otherwise!

Love,

Fox

September 21st

Dear Copper,

We went to the Botanical Gardens today, and we once again tossed pennies into the Ottoman Garden fountain (like we did last May 26th)... Looks like my initial wish came true already, so here's hoping the next one does, too! We'll just have to wait and see... ;)

Love,

Fox

September 20th

Dear Copper,

Let's not sweat the small stuff, okay?

Love you!

Dear Copper,

I promise to always love you, even in times when I don't like you.

Love,

Fox

September 18th

Dear Copper,

I surprised you today by just showing up at your door after work... It's only going to be a few more months of me being able to make you happy with surprise visits like that, so I may as well take full advantage while I can! Love you!

Love,

Fox

September 17th

Dear Copper,

I just want to give you a big smooch right now; I love you so much!

Love,

Fox 

September 16th

Dear Copper,

I gave you a hug tonight before we said goodbye and I just didn't want to let go... This is how I'm reminded how much I love you.

Love,

Fox

September 15th

Dear Copper,

I just love you so so much. I can't even begin to put into words how much I need you in my life.

Love,

Fox

September 14th

Dear Copper,

Yup, definitely made the right choice in picking a future husband. 

Even though I was studying most of the day, it was still nice having you by my side (you slept in preparation of your overnight shift)... It just gave me a nice sense of peace. Can't wait to live with you soon!

Love,

Fox

September 13th

Dear Copper,

I love you, wet kisses and all.

Love,

Fox

September 12th

Dear Copper,

As of today, you have officially met my entire extended family. I'd also like to say that I know you will be a great father someday, not on your phone while our kids are taking their first steps or saying their first words (well, unless you are taking a video)... You're gonna be an awesome dad.

Love,

Fox

September 11th

Dear Copper,

You were just the right one for me.

Love,

Fox

September 10th

Dear Copper,

I opened a snap from you today and my first thought was "I have a pretty damn good-looking fiancé!"

Love,

Fox

September 9th

Dear Copper,

I'm so happy you came over to watch Big Brother and get some cuddle time in tonight, that was just what I needed!

Love,

Fox

September 8th

Dear Copper,

Happy 1 year and three months! ;)

Also, thanks for such an awesome vacation to Disneyland with me... We had some tough times early in the week combined with tons of fun times throughout the trip, and I know that is how our marriage will be in the future. Thanks for agreeing to go through life with me, good times as bad... So lucky I get to be your wife!

Love,

Fox

September 7th

Dear Copper,

Today is our last day in Disneyland, and I just wanted to say how lucky I am to have been able to share this experience with you, my best friend.

Love,

Fox

September 6th

Dear Copper, 

Thanks for getting up early, walking me to the bus stop, and then running with me today during the Disneyland Half... I know it wouldn't have been nearly as fun without you there. 

Love,

Fox

September 5th

Dear Copper,

We had a rough start to our trip, but this shows that we will be able to make it through anything, as long as we're together.

Love,
Fox

September 4th

Dear Copper,

We're in Disneyland!

Love,

Fox

September 3rd

Dear Copper,

 

We didn't have your luggage, or transportation, or the room we requested, but I have you, so it's all going to be alright. Literally the only thing that kept me from losing it tonight was holding on to your arm in the shuttle to our "Disney" hotel.

Love,

Fox

September 2nd

Dear Copper,

I love you because you let me have the window seat (and put up with me not ever wanting to check a bag, haha)!

Love,

Fox

September 1st

Dear Copper,

I get to be your BFFAEAEAE (best friend forever and ever and ever and ever)! How lucky am I?!

Love,

Fox
