My Darling Sweetheart

"I know you've most likely received the next wedding dress. It's quite delicate, isn't it? You're most likely also wondering why I've received another wedding dress from my grandmother. She gave it to me with a note.

'My Dear Lilli,

   As you might have realized, this dress has shrunk in size comparison to the last one. As I give it to you, I remember wearing it after what seemed like a long storm of grief. It was as if I stood as a new person. Freed from anything and anyone I'd known in the past, I remember looking at my love as I walked down the aisle, once again.

   He was the same, but his eyes beamed with a new gleam as if he knew bringing me through that type of grief would find us together in that moment. He told me, in our vows that day, he'd marry me over and over again if, in our newborn life together, death shall do us part. I looked at him quizzically and agreed wholeheartedly. "I will." I said. He smiled and kissed me ever so gently. And we were married, once again.

With Love,
Grandmother Westerland'

I hope you think the dress is as beautiful as I do. I was so small dear I never fit into it again after that day. Should it find it's way to you my darling sweetheart, so shall the mending of your broken heart. Believe in true love... & true love shall be your home."
