Dear Kendrick,

Well, here we are. One year and 3 months into our relationship. I am so glad we have made it this far. From day one I have known that you were different from all of the other guys I had dated. The very first night we talked you told me I was beautiful. Kendrick, I had never heard that before.

We have been through so much together. Like my parents not accepting our relationship because you are black. Well, that doesn't matter to me, because I love you for who you are, and for who I am when I am with you. You bring out the best parts of me and you show me what it means to be truly happy and in love.

Kendrick, I'll never forget the day I found out I was pregnant. It was the happiest and hardest day of my life. I was so scared to tell my family, but then when I talked to you I knew that everything was going to be okay. I realized that even if my parents didn't support me, you would.

The day I had Kiara was the happiest day of my life. Kendrick, when you came in the delivery room and told me that you were proud of me, it was all I could do not to cry. When I saw you holding her, I felt a love and happiness I didn't even know was possible. There were the two people that I love more than life itself.

Baby, I swear I don't know what I would do without you. You mean more to me than I can say, and I hope that our relationship lasts forever and ever. I love you so much.

Love always,

Crystal
