A letter to my lover

Dear,love of my life

Did you get the things I left for you this morning,did you enjoy the breakfast I left beside the bed as you slept. The clothes I ironed for you to wear to work or the bath that was ready for you when you stepped out of bed. You were so tired last night you fell asleep as you tried to balance your check book. I hope you don't mind but I took the liberty of paying your rent and bills,lights,gas,phone and your sons daycare I got that too don't worry about it. what ever you tried to balance take it and spend it on you. Take your time love there's no need to rush for the door no need to be in a hurry you got time. Your gas tank is full so there's no need to stop by the store. The house is clean, Lil man and I took care of that last night. Your cats have been fed and I'm taking the dog to the vet after I drop Lil man off at school. I sent your mother flowers, today is her birthday. Oh I called your job and told them you'd be a little late today. Your hair appointment is at 4 o'clock don't worry about rushing home today to pick him up,we'll catch a game today if that's OK with you. The things I've done, to me it's nothing. I did them to say this. Years ago someone broke your heart,and to heal it you try to stay so busy till it stops hurting. You work to hard and never take time for yourself. Now that time has come you deserve so much more and although you don't need me to take care of you. It would be my pleasure to be your sunlight all the time rather than when your sons asleep and the sun goes down.All I'm asking is for all of you instead of parts off you part of the time. If I've over stepped my bounds I'm sorry,but I'd do it again to see the smile you have right now. OK love it's time to put this letter down and get ready for today. Oh by the way dinner will be ready at 8 o'clock so don't be late.

    Oh no tell me, i'm dreaming. You fulfill every women dream, kind, understanding with perfection, maybe a bit too much.
    There were a few punctuation mistakes but if doing all this cames from the heart, you're 'perfect'.
    Keep on helping out but don't forget yourself, kel.
