August & Isla

Prologue.

Isla,

I didn’t fall in love with you the moment I saw you.

The moment I saw you though, I knew something great would become of us. I don’t know how I knew, but somehow I just did.

I don’t think I ever really did fall in love with you. I think I walked into love with you — or as you would say, I “sauntered” into it. Every little thing you did and every little thing about you made me take steps toward you until I was standing right in front of you and I was yours completely. While the steps I took toward you were sometimes shaky and sometimes threw me off course, I wouldn’t change a thing. I’d do everything over and over and over again, and I’d choose you every time.

Loving you has been a privilege that I’m grateful for every single day.

Always,
August
