At first, Liesel could not talk. Perhaps it was the sudden bumpiness of love she felt for him. Or had she always loved him? It's likely. Restricted as she was from speaking, she wanted him to kiss her. She wanted him to drag her hand across and pull her over. It didn't matter where. Her mouth, her neck, her cheek. Her skin was empty for it, waiting.

Dear Avvian, (:

Can I just tell you that I miss you like the Dickens? Is that really a possible thing? I just mean that we never met. Is it possible to miss you yet? Either way, I totally wish you were here.

So, (: I totally got a kindle for Christmas, and I it’s pretty darn schweet. Take that. (: I hope you got some pretty stellar gifts this year. And maybe you think you’re too old for that, I don’t know. What I really hope above all else is that you, My darling, Did not spend your Christmastime alone. I don’t EVER want that for you.


I worry about you my dear. I worry that you’ve had a difficult life. I worry that I don’t even know what to say. I just worry. I only want the best for you and you are SO not getting the best when you have me. And I worry that you aren’t going to be able to be happy with me. I’m not happy with who I am right now Av. And I cannot help but to think that this fallback phase that I’m in is keeping us apart. AND I hate that thought. I just want to be with you. More than anything. When is it going to happen for us. When I’m 19? 20? 25?

It would kill my spirits to have to wait until I’m 25 to meet you. I want to already get to know you. I want to hold your hand. I want to be able to make you smile. And wake up next to you. And tell you stories (: and call to check up on you when you’re away.

I want to look at our children and see you grinning through their little smiles. I want them to look just like you. I want to watch them squeal as you chase them around the house. (: I can’t wait to be in the kitchen cooking (: and to have you stop in dig around in the food that you shouldn’t be touching yet (;

I can’t wait for Christmas shaped sugar cookies, and easter baskets, and stockings (: I have this book Av. And I totally snatched it up. It’s called the BIG PICTURE BOOK of JESUS. And I’m pretty for positive that they don’t even sell it anymore it’s so old. And dad always used to read it to me before bed. There’s totally a whole page missing. But I got it, because I really want to read it to our kids. And that is one tradition from my family that I want to continue.

(: I can’t wait to start making traditions with you.

I love you Av.
