Dear Stephanie,
This is valentine's day, and this the First time both of us have ever had the chance to spend it with someone we love. I (something crossed out) think I'll keep this short and sweet since I'd much rather just compliment you the whole day ;) I'd spend more time writing this, but its the night before today, so I'm coming to see you right now :D
Love, Wade :)
Wade also crosses out the "e" in "niece" to write:
nice ass girlfriend
