I’ll give you a Cinderella story. That’s what the search for you will be. Instead of a glass slipper and a ball it’ll be this website and a video application. It’ll be me reaching out to you through billboards and ads across Alabama. You’ll see me. And then I’ll see you.
But it is 2224 days away. The day I reach out. The day you will see me for the first time. But I will wait because discipline is love. Waiting is love. And I don’t mind because God is with me. I am being healed, I am being restored, and everything will lead me to you and you will be just what I always dreamed of and everything will go exactly as planned. I know that. I have felt it. God showed me. And he made me say hallelujah today for the first time ever because his love is so great. Just like mine will be for you.
And you will be happy I waited. Not only because you will love me but also because I am not ready. I am ready to be a perfect father, but I am not ready to be a perfect husband yet. That might sound strange, but being a husband and a father are different beasts. I will get there. I know I will because God would not have placed the desire in me to be your husband if I wasn’t going to make it. He isn’t cruel. He has a plan. And I’m following it. You’ll be proud to know that I met my earnings goal for this month. It’s not a lot but it’s the foundation of what will one day support you and our kids comfortably. It’s the beginning of our forever. Our wonderful forever that I cannot wait for. I cannot wait but I must. And I do so gladly because I know the kind of happiness that is waiting. You.
I hope you sleep tight tonight because I love you already.
Your future husband,
Mr. Ladegaard
