Hey my love, Earlier, while I was holding you as you were drifting off to sleep, I realized something. Even though I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep for a few more hours, I felt so content just lying there with you that I didn't want to move. It made me think about how, for the past 10 or 15 years, I've never been able to fall asleep before midnight. Recently, I managed to fall asleep around 11 p.m. because I knew I needed to, but that was nothing compared to the nights we spend together. I think it's because I feel so at peace when I'm lying next to you. You help me unwind and relax, allowing me to drift off more easily.
I also think you bring me so much joy throughout the day that I don't feel the need to stay up late anymore. In the past, I stayed up because I wanted to savor every moment of the day. But now, with you in my life, my days feel full and bright, so that urge isn't as strong. It's funny because I never thought I'd be able to change this habit—it's something I've done my whole life. But then I met you, and everything shifted so naturally. Suddenly, I felt fulfilled enough to go to bed early without feeling like I was missing out. I guess it's because you make me truly happy!
That said, please don't be upset if there are still times when I can't fall asleep right away. I love being next to you, but sometimes waiting an hour or two, trying not to move and wake you, can feel a bit long. But you're still the most adorable thing when you're sleeping, and I promise to spend most of my nights watching over you because I love it, and you're all I need.
