I don't dance...

But here I am....spinning you round in circles.  

Love that song. 

 

Cheers. A toast to new friends. And hope. And that people realize that love is not easy. That words are bibles. That owning up to mistakes is admirable. That our differences are lovable. Cheers To kept promises. And meaning exactly what you said. To speaking up. To standing up. To fighting for what you love. To walking towards each other and not away. Cheers to people who challenge you to grow. To people who love you despite your past. To people who don't accept your behaviors when they know you can try harder. Cheers to blue eyes. And therapy sessions.  And beta fish. And the last bite of ice cream that you give away. And love poems. And babies. And cute little hiking boots for babies. And treehouses.  And commitments of working on yourself. And books. And hammocks. And smell good rooms. And dog kisses. And to treating people how you would want to be treated. And to a love as deep as the ocean.  Cheers to faith. And believing. And rough hands. And crooked toes. And reading books out loud. And tattoos that tell stories. And flannels on girls. And tight pants. And ear touches. And unexpected hugs from behind.  And music. And dancing in the kitchen. And pancakes. And walks in the fall. Cheers to hands that just fit together. And new places. And trails that long for us to come to them. And lakes that reflect our imperfections. Cheers to love. To mother fucking love. And never giving up. Cheers to sticking with what you said on the good days, even on the bad days. Cheers to watching someone sleep. And handwritten cards. And letters. And the ah ha moments that make us realize, maybe I really do need to try harder, to figure out how my past keeps me stuck. Cheers to marshmallows and Tin cups. Cheers to fall weddings. Old suitcases and maps. Cheers to bandanas. And jeeps with our hair blowing. Cheers to frolicking dogs and mountains of blankets. Cheers to baby oil. And puzzles. And wine. And cabins. And pumpkins. And cheers to adventures that will continue. Cheers to coming back to each other when you realize the sun is a hard thing to ignore. Cheers to beautiful things that can't be forgotten. May you never forget them. Cheers to knowing what's worth keeping.  Cheers to sleepy talk. Cheers to always learning each other as you go. Cheers to silly inside jokes. Cheers to real love, one that makes you cry on the happiest days. One that makes you forget what time of day it is. One that makes you drop your old habits and let love in. Cheers to cute saved voicemails. Cheers to pictures. In your hand. Cheers to mountains. Cheers to sloths. Baby sloths. Cheers to vulnerability and fighting for love. No matter how uncomfortable it might make you because it challenges you to go to new places. Cheers to growth. Cheers to cottage cheese and pretzels. Cheers to funky glasses. Cheers to listening to a love so loud and never leaving it. Never. Cheers to working towards something you can't stop thinking about. Cheers to trust. Cheers to tops. And bottoms. And stories. Cheers to chocolate milk. Cheers to a love where your soulmate ties your shoes for you.
