100 Roses, 100 Memories

To my Girlfriend of 1 year.

Her January birthday was cold, she had a terrible flu and her birthday plans had to be canceled and she was confined to her home for days due to the severity of her flu.

I bought her 100 long stem Roses (90cm), the largest bouquet I have ever purchased. I cannot describe the size and weight to them. Very overwhelming.

I spent several hours gluing 100 memories with her (Printed out on very small pieces of paper) around every rose, as well as trimming the thorns and extra leaves from each rose.

I was already very late for work but sped over to her house where she wasn't expecting me, rang her doorbell and gave them to her. They were so massive I couldn't even see her anymore.

Seeing her in her pajamas with her runny nose and hair everywhere and seeing her look at me the way she did...no words can describe the feeling.

Your smile weakens me, your hug takes away all my problems and your love makes me a better man.

I will forever Love You Gabriela Diaz
