“I promise to prioritize you the way we prioritize our souls’ needs. I’ll prioritize you in the way I prioritize art and you with your research, with a gentle determination and commitment to getting it right. I won’t just stop if it becomes challenging because I know the best things are born of time and effort. You are the best thing. This life I want to make with you is as important to me as it was to my mom. All I want is to stretch these days into years and make memories with you.”
