How lucky our children will be to have a mother like you... - George W. Bush to Barbara Bush

1. Write about a romantic or happy time that you shared; your history. Express to your love how you felt sharing that moment with them. Your story is unique and wonderful, tell them what it means to you.
2. Tell them how you feel about them in your heart. What the sound of their voice or the sight of their smile does to you.
3. Reaffirm you love. Tell them how you feel today and how you look forward to the future.

The love letter can be any length. The important part is that you open up, fully by putting your thought and feeling on paper. The love letter will be something to hold dear and remind them of your love during more trying times.
