I Want...

Someone who will love me as much as I love him - we will both just be amazed that the other person is choosing us.
Be sure to check out Pascal Campion's other amazing, story-telling art HERE
Someone who will be assertive and take control and be in charge.
Someone who would walk a thousand miles just to be the man to fall down at my door.
Someone who will fight for me.
Someone who will let me be silly and childish, but still recognize, respect, and admire the intelligent, strong, and independent girl I can be.
Someone who will not let me win.
Someone who will give me a pen to doodle with in church.


Someone who will insist on taking me to the temple frequently.
Someone who will be obsessed with our babies.
Someone who will wrestle with our boys and swing with our girls.


Someone who will lift others, genuinely, sincerely have interest in the wellbeing of others.
Someone who will brag about me.
Someone who will defend me - whether it be from the sarcastic teasing of his buddies or from the ever-shattering family values in the world today.
Someone who will buy me chocolate and flowers for no reason.
Someone who will surprise me.


Someone who will write notes to me and leave them on my windshield before I go to work.
Someone who will rub my swollen, pregnant feet.
Someone who will not only watch me be goofy, but will be goofy with me.


Someone who will dance with me, and sing to me even if he has a horrendous voice.
Someone who will remind me to get my hair out of the shower drain.
Someone who will let his scruff grow for at least a few days every once in a while.
Someone who will follow the prophet.
Someone who will read scriptures to me when I'm too tired.
Someone who will love that I love pictures and full-on cooperate when I want to take them.  Maybe he will even make one of them his facebook profile picture.  :)
Someone who will just grab me and kiss my face off!
Someone who will make sure my toenails are always painted when I'm pregnant.
Someone who can hold me and carry me across the threshold of our first home.
Someone who I can wake up and will calm me down when I have bad dream.
Someone who will try new things with me.
Someone who will brush out/play with my hair while watching a movie together.
Someone who will laugh and make me laugh during the work.
Someone who will be vulnerable.
Someone who will defend the Priesthood and all goodness and cleanliness.


Someone who will tell me I look beautiful multiple times a day.
Someone who will want to be a powerhouse couple who helps change the world.
Someone who will remind me who I am and can be.
Someone who will make me believe in and see the good all around me.
Someone who will be an old-fashioned gentleman.

And if he does, I promise to........

  2. Ok, so this will either be really sweet or really creepy, but I read your posts "I want" and "I promise" and I literally cried my eyes out. I know, so manly right? Well, I was shocked. Mainly because I was surprised that lovely, spectacular women like yourself still exist, and secondly because you are maddeningly eloquent and precise with your prose. But it's not simply prose, it's a plausible reality.

    I felt so warm reading your blog posts. It was refreshing and you, stranger, have restored my faith in humanity.

    Here I am leaving a comment on your lovely blog that I found while googling for a Sunday school lesson. In the middle of the night. So weird. I know.

    But I just want to let you know how good you made this lad feel.
