Every day tell him how you feel and what's going on. Keep in mind that this is specifically for him to read at the end of a year or month or however long you decide.

I once wrote Alan a story. It was a short simple story about a prince and a beautiful woman. The woman had red hair and blue eyes and was spoiled rotten, just like me. The prince was big and strong with black hair and green eyes just like Alan. After I wrote it, I burned the edges of some parchment paper and made a little book out of it. I gave it a cover and bound it with ribbon. I put it in a fabric covered box and gave it to him as a gift. It lives in our bookshelf and still comes out sometimes. The story doesn't have to fancy or perfect, just done with love!

Write a silly poem for him, or a romantic poem or any kind of poem. Let him know you're thinking of him.
