Dear Father of My Future Children,

My Eternal Help Meet, Hey!
How are you? What's cooking?
Tell me your favorite foods and dishes. I will be happy if I already know how to prepare or cook them. But if not, I have the idea to learn it from one of the best recipe books in the world or from the best chefs like my mom or your mom if she is still with you, you know, until you ask my hand from my parents. ;)
Well, as of this writing, my father joined the Lord in the year 1999. And that makes my mother a widow for 17 years.
So, my mom is my GUARD. My GUARDian ANGEL.
She wants the BEST for me. So NEVER THINK ABOUT YOURSELF as the LEAST.
Remember what FORD said, "AIM HIGH, and HIT the MARK."

Let me get you straight, I am TALKATIVE. I would like to adapt to my mother's preference when it comes to COMMUNICATION. It has to be CONSISTENT.
I believe that TRUE LOVE is like a PRAYER. TRUE LOVE = COMMUNICATION.
COMMUNICATION, it must be CONSISTENT. NOT Convenient.
My mom's perspective is "Find a man who would not only throw you interesting stories but who will give way for you to SPEAK."
You better LISTEN WHOLEHEARTEDLY. Lend me your ears and look into my BEAUTIFUL EYES. ^_^

I would always love to hear from you. I sought to hear your voice over te phone, but it would make me feel giddy if I can look into your eyes as you say the RIGHT WORDS to me, the WORDS not only would make me HAPPY, hearing it but most especially and above all, I tell you.
Please do not be too trying hard to please me with your FLOWERY WORDS. Yes, I appreciate that you compliment me. But it is my plead unto thee, please, please, our DEAR LOVING HEAVENLY FATHER MORE THAN ME or MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE in this world.

WRITE ME LETTERS. See my journals, my poems, my blogs and videos.
I love reading books, inspiring books, most especially the scriptures. I would expect that you love the things I love and the skills I know and the knowledge that I have. I would be eager to know and love the things you love doing.

IF I WERE A BOY, I WOULD BE A GENTLEMAN.
I am a boyish type of girl as I grew up in a family of four siblings, I am the sole girl, now a woman, with three gentleman brothers. I am a GENTLEWOMAN and I will soon marry you because you are a GENTLEMAN. I do not see myself exchanging vows and spending the rest of my life with someone I am more gentle than him, or should I say, "Forget me, if you can't be as GENTLE as I am to you. Please be gentle as a dove, soft as cotton, light as a feather and loving as JESUS CHRIST."
We are near yet so far. I am already 25 years old, I want a GTKY activity with you. When are you planning to meet me?
I am waiting for you. I am pretty sure that you are waiting for me, too. I hate this WAITING GAME they call.

Have I met you? Do you have QUESTIONS for me? I have so many QUESTIONS for you, but as of now, I am keeping them and keep asking GOD FIRST.
Do you want me to ask the questions in my mind right now?
Let me begin with these:

Are you PRAYING for me?
How are your THOUGHTS about me? Are they PURE?
This is NOT a SECRET, but this is a HIDDEN TREASURE I want to REVEAL:
You know how I want you to REMEMBER ME:
"Remember me with SMILES and LAUGHTER, for that is how I will remember you all.
If you can only remember me with tears, then don't remember me at all."
- Laura Ingalls Wilder
Also, please, remember me in your PRAYERS. You are remembered in my PRAYERS, too.

How often do I come into your THOUGHTS? Pardon me for tiring your BRAIN. But since I'm RUNNING in your MIND, I got exhausted, too. Probably we are sharing the same thoughts or that you are in my DREAMS and that we EXCITEDly run to meet each other when we met in DREAMLAND. Maybe I need to get some MORE SLEEP. But I decided and really want to WAKE UP and be in the REAL WORLD to see the REAL YOU.

Do you know my LIKES and DISLIKES? Are you interested in the THINGS I ENJOY? Are you willing to LEARN the GAMES I PLAY? Focus on my SPIRIT, not just my eyes or my face or my voice or whatever is visible to thine eyes or transparent to thine senses.

Cut me some slack, do not be shy. Please have the COURAGE to GET to know me especially my HEART and MIND. Do not focus on my FACE or my OUTWARD APPEARANCE. I will also grow old, have GREY HAIRS and WRINKLES on my NOSE and EYES, my skin will get saggy in time, I might gain or lose weight, too. I hope you already know how to adjust to the HORMONAL IMBALANCES of the women. I bet you have biological sisters or foster sisters around you. I am hoping and praying that you are really well-taught by those sisters of yours and that includes your mom.
DOMINO EFFECT.
How do you treat your mother and your sister? Are you good for them? Please love them as much as they love you. They get moody sometimes, but they are just concerned about you and your own welfare. I believe in the saying that,
"A man will treat his woman or his wife the way he treats his mother and sister." I have high hopes that you have GREAT RESPECT for the women, girls and children.

Love,
Princess Astrid, your soon-to-be Queen Astrid
(insert your FAMILY NAME here)

*Hey, I'm not done yet.
YES, I DO, I Do love, Y, Yeah, I do LOVE STORIES. I LOVE STORIES.
My Father when he was still alive, he would tell bedtime stories to us kids.
Let us read and share bedtime stories to our FUTURE CHILDREN, ALRIGHT? Prepare them now.

So, when will our LOVE STORY begin?
