Persuasive Letter

Dear Ayaji:

We have a beautiful family and 12 years together  and all of those days have been the best of my life,I know that we have a nice life and  is perfect as it is now , I think that we have been together for a long time and I'm ready to go to the next step and to formalize the relation that we have. Is for that that I want to ask you if you want to marry me and spent the rest of your days with me.

                                                                                               Waiting your answer
                                                                                                       Your love Ayo
