a new perspective on Love

It is lover's day...a day I once thought was only for the love of your life.

But, that was back before anyone had ever called me Mommy, what seems like a lifetime ago is not even quite a year ago. That title changes things you know?

What was once an elusive concept now sings songs just to me. I bought six valentines gifts this year...not just one.



Man I would love to finish this thought but a baby is screaming at feet, unsure if "it" wants up on my lap as I type or if "it" wants down.

Who knew that a little baby could throw such a fit? I thought only two year olds did this.

Happy day of love.

  2. It's amazing... the feeling you get from the little ones who truly LOVES you and wants to be your Valentine!!! I got up really early this morning to make my traditional heart shaped pancakes...(not red this year, someone used all the red food coloring on a school project and did not let me know...) The appreciation was amazing... Life is short and I really love holidays. I'll take them anyway I can get them...
    miss you and love to see you post!!!
    xoxo,

  3. Our children know we love them, but there something about how their eyes light up with delight at a valentine gift. Mine both forgot all about valentine's day and ran to me with hugs when they found their little gifts in their rooms.

    I can only imagine how filled with love your house must be these days.

  5. I'm happy for you; maybe someday you will be able to write poems and stories about your great experiences with the children. That short-short contest is on again; deadline in about a month. Will you apply this year?
