:grabs a sheet of paper from Mandy's notebook an' grabs a pen, settles down on his desk an' starts writin':
Dear Brody,
I have never written you a letter before. Not even while we were juss datin', not while we were boyfriend or girlfriend, not while we were engaged, but now tha' we're married, I guess a love letter to you isn't too late to write.
I think 'bout you all the time. Even when you're in the same room wi' me, you're on my mind. Even when you're right here in my arms, I think to myself how beautiful you are. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night an' lay there besides you juss watchin' you sleep. Those times, I wish I could juss capture the moment so the image of you fast asleep can be wi' me forever. Even if in time, I age an' my hair grows white an' I don't remember much of anythin' at all anymore, I could always look down at the photograph an' marvel at how beautiful you were an' always will be. I think that if I forget everything that ever happened in my life, I don't think I'll ever forget juss how much I love you.
Even though we've been married for a long time, I'm still amazed tha' we're together. The trials we've been through have not torn us apart, but has only served to make our relationship even stronger. I love you baby. I'm never goin' to let anything get in between of you an' me. We're goin' to grow old together, watch Nathan grow up, watch our future kids (hopefully) grow up, an' still, my love for you will grow. I can guarantee that. You're my world. I love you an' I hope there never comes a time where you decide tha' I'm not worth lovin' anymore. I think I would die without your love there to save me.
I've noticed tha' all we ever do nowadays is sit around an' juss talk. I don't mind. Hell, I have fun juss sittin' in silence as long as you're there. I'm never bored wi' you whatever it is we do. But... I don't want us to turn into little homebodies where we juss sit around an' stare at each other (even though I never get tired of juss starin' at you either).
So, my darlin' wife, I was juss wonderin'... would you like to go out wi' me?
Always,
Benj
