My Dearest Sydney,

Words can't even start to describe how much I love you, but that isn't going to stop me from trying. You make me the luckiest guy in the world. You have shown me what it is to be loved and supported unconditionally.

From that day we met, I knew that you were something special. The way your smile lit up the beach, the way the conversation just flowed so naturally, how absolutely beautiful you are inside and out. I loved how willing you were to be pushed outside of your comfort zone.

You've taught me what it means to love unconditionally, to support wholeheartedly, and to feel empathy at levels I didn't know were achievable. When we are together, life's problems just seem to melt away, and I want to find myself in that moment forever.

Thank you for being patient with me, for understanding my flaws, and for loving all the parts of me, even the ones I struggle to love myself. I cannot express my gratitude and appreciation for you enough. You push me to be the best version of myself, and I want to be that for you.

I know it has been tough being away, and I went ahead and put us on the other side of the world from eachother. I just want to let you know that every moment we spend together, whether in person or afar, fighting or loving, means the world to me. I cannot wait for you to come to Japan so we can experience this next step together in not only our relationship but our life.

Happy Valentine's Day, Syd! I love you with my whole heart and can't wait for what else we have in store.

Forever and always yours, Jaden <3
