As the big weekend approaches, my feelings about you and your marriage are personal and it’s more 36 to me that you realize how much I love you and how 37 I am of the amazing woman you have become.
My memory for details is terrible, 38 my memory for how 39 you were as a child is vivid. I loved tossing (轻扔) you 40 in the air in the pool in Marine, and reading 41 books on the floor of the Denver book store with you on my knees.
When I think of you as an adult, it is your 42 that has led you to your vegetarian lifestyle. It is your heart that helps you care for family and friends 43 . For these 44 I have selected three hearts that are this dad’s gift to his 45 to marry daughter.
One heart is a small golden box with a 46 of you and me together. It will 47 you that of the men in your life I loved you 48 and will always love you forever and ever.
The second heart is made of jade (玉) and has the Chinese character "Fu". Jade represents luck and "Fu" means 49 . Maria and I want your life to be filled with 50 .
The third heart is just pretty and represents your 51 , inside and 52 kind. You are a wonderful, loving 53 from God, a beautiful human being. So we are delighted that you are entering this exciting part of your life.
Finally, the wedding (婚姻) will be amazing. I can’t wait to see you walk down in your beautiful dress. And I can’t wait to dance with you in 54 . My hope is that the event and the whole weekend will bring 55 memories.
