Today is all about you — the boy who makes my heart feel full, even from hundreds of miles away. I wish more than anything I could be there right now, celebrating with you, hugging you tight, and watching you smile as you blow out your candles. But until that day comes, I hope this letter brings you even a fraction of the love you give me every day.
You've brought so much joy into my life. Every late-night call, every FaceTime before school, every sweet message has made me fall for you more than I ever thought possible. You've made distance feel like something we can get through together — not something that keeps us apart. I don't think you realize just how much of an impact you've had on my heart.
You're kind. You're funny. You're thoughtful in ways that melt me. You are the most considerate person I know. And you're growing into someone even more incredible because you lead with such a genuine heart.
I think about the future a lot. About the day we finally meet. About the first kiss, the nervous smiles, the "finally" feeling. I imagine kayaking with you, paddling through quiet water, side by side. Laughing, racing, getting splashed — creating memories in the real world after making so many in this long-distance dream of ours.
And I know we'll get there. Because what we have is real. Strong. Worth every day of waiting.
Until then, I hope this birthday is everything you deserve — full of love, laughter, and reminders that you are so, so loved. Not just by your family and friends, but by a girl who's dreaming of the day she finally gets to say all this… face to face.
Happy sweet 16, cutie. I'm so lucky to love you.
Forever yours,
Lauren
