Dear Sydney,
At eight years old, you fell out of a tree playing zombie tag, trying to sacrifice yourself so I could win the game. But I didn’t notice.
At sixteen, you followed me around in a short denim skirt, too much perfume, and red lipstick, pretending it didn’t matter when I ignored you. But I didn’t notice.
At nineteen, you worked side by side proving you were just as worthy in the family company and gave me all the credit. But I didn’t notice.
At twenty-one, I kissed you for the first time. I was your best friend and first love. But I didn’t notice how much I meant to you and I left.
At twenty-seven, I came back. I saw what I had lost—the only woman I’d ever truly love. The only one who was able to heal my broken heart and damaged soul.
I noticed you.
I see you.
I love you. Every part of you—your kindness and smile, your sharp mind and mischievous humor, your passionate convictions and beautiful body.
Thank you for second chances, my love.
Happy Valentine’s Day.
Tristan
