Beloved

This is for the April monochrome challenge week 2. I'm the teensiest bit behind. LOL.

The journaling reads:
I suppose it’s a bit weird of me to put a page about me in your scrapbook. I imagine that when you open your book and find this page and glance at it, you’ll wonder what in the world I was thinking when I created it. And, well, I’ll admit it’s probably a little strange. But I have something I want to say to you, and I trust that when you read my words you’ll understand. Because this isn’t really a page about me. It’s a page about your father, and a page about you. See, on the day Daddy took these pictures I remember feeling so beautiful and loved. Your dad is really good at that. He never lets me doubt his love for me. It’s one of the ways he loves me like Christ loves His bride, the Church. He makes me believe that I’m beautiful and special and always, always beloved. Why tell you this? Just because I want you to realize that someday, when you are married, you have the opportunity to show Jesus’ love to your own bride. And if you do it right, she will never doubt your love for her. And if you want to know how to do it right, keep an eye on your dad. He’s an expert, take it from me.
