Congratulations does not even begin to encapsulate my emotions and feeling toward you two being engaged! But it's a start. Cecilie, I distinctly remember meeting you for the first time and being almost awestruck at how beautiful you are! I had heard lots about you and was so excited to meet you because of the way Josh lit up when he talked about you. Since then a few years ago, you've continued to impress me with your kind heart, astute awareness of the space around you, and your passion for making an impact on the world. It's truly amazing how well those things align with my brother. Cecilie, you are a very, very lucky girl to have found Josh. He will take care of your soul forever. And Josh, you are a very, very lucky boy to have someone like Cile in your life. Absorb every time she looks at you because it is so clear how much she adores you. The love you both have for each other is powerful and can be felt by peopl around you, too. I have already been inspired by your relationship thus far and I think you'll be paving a good path to follow for the rest of us. I look up to both of you as individuals and as a couple.
Josh has always held a very high place in my mind in terms of the way he treats others. Josh- you are the most sincere, kindest person I have ever been blessed to know. This is why I get filled with joy when I see the way you bring out these qualities even more in each other. When you are both working toward something together, it's like an explosion of kindness for all!! Gets intense :)
It is obvious that you will both challenge each other to continue growing as individuals and together as well. I think that it is important to encourage each other to find your own way as much as possible, but support each other too. With a marriage comes a sense of security, among many other things, and I hope you will both use this security as a strong foundation from which to take some risks that you might not otherwise take. Push each other to accomplish your dreams.
Woah, I could not be more excited and happy for you to take on this everchanging adventure together! Of course there will be high and lows and mediums and I have complete confidence that all of these times will be meaningful in different ways and that you'll navigate them gracefully. Never take each other for granted and treat each other like you would the last chocolate chip cookie on the planet!
I so deeply wish I could be there for your celebrations. I heard about Sauk Mt. and imagine it must have been heavenly beautiful. I hope that you can feel my presence in your hearts because I am thinking about you and sending you so much love even though I am far away. Please know that it will make me happy to support you in any way I can during your engagement and in the future. I look forward to strengthening my relationship to you as a couple. It feels amazing and natural to have you join the family, Cecilie.
Josh and Cile, I love you both lots and wish you the very best.
