Day 21: Letter to Someone I Judged by a First Impression

I've got nothing here.
Not that I haven't done it, I'm sure, but nothing's coming to me.
If someone would care to suggest something...
You know, it's very funny. I've been doing these letters every day (mostly) and usually when I look at the subject the first time, I think "huh? I don't know anyone or have anything for that". But then by the end of the day it comes to me and I not only have something to write, my fingers just fly on the keyboard.
But I've been thinking about this one off and on all day and there's just nothing.
So, unless I think of something here pretty quickly, I'm skipping today.

Okay, how about this:

Dear Josh,
My first impression of you was that you would be perfect for my daughter. This was not because I even knew anything about you, but because I knew your family and wanted my family to be part of it.
As it turns out, you are the perfect husband for my daughter, not only because of your family (although that's still pretty perfect), but because you are so obviously made for her. You complete each other - to be really corny about it. You are like two sides of the same heart, you have a rhythm, you think with the same wonderful, crazy, hilarious brain. And you share a love for God and a love for each other that is truly awesome to see.
I'm so glad that my first impression was right - even though it was for the wrong reasons!
Love,
Sharon
