A little note, just for you

For Katelyn — aka "Kitteh"

(Yes, "Kitteh." Don't ask.) Here are the reasons I like you.

I wanted to put this somewhere you could actually look at it instead of me fumbling through it out loud. I know where things stand, and this isn't me asking for anything — I just wanted you to know.

1

You're kind

You notice people. You care about the small stuff that others walk right past. That kind of kindness is rare, and it shows in everything you do.

2

You're caring

You actually show up for people. Not in a big loud way — in the quiet way that matters more. The way you look out for others is one of my favorite things about you.

3

You're gorgeous

I mean… you are. That's just a fact. I'd be lying if I pretended I hadn't noticed.

4

You're brilliant

You're sharp, you think for yourself, and you notice things other people miss. Talking to you is never boring because there's always something going on behind your eyes.

5

You're funny

You get my jokes — the good ones and the terrible ones. Half the time you make them worse, and somehow that’s the best part.

6

You're just… amazing

If I tried to list every reason this page would never end. So I’ll just say: the whole Katelyn package. That’s the reason.

So yeah — I like you, Kitteh.
I know you're taken, and I'm not trying to change anything. I just wanted you to know you're appreciated. — me
