Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday! I think it's a combination of things that I like: a day reserved to say, "I love you." Which, of course, we say it every other day too but I like that there's a specific day set aside for LOVE. All people want to feel loved and cherished and to be able to reciprocate those feelings. I also like the red and pink color combination together, a signal that Spring is on the way!
So a little tribute to those I love...
My husband, I love the way you love me (sappy country song, I know) I love the father you are to our children, I love how you make me laugh until I almost pee my pants.
My daughter, I LOVE how you're learning about everything and how you want to be my "big helper." I love when I print something from the pc - and you get so excited that a "delivewee" has arrived. I love to make cookies for you and when you say, "Oh mommy, you make the best cookies" that melts my heart.
My little boy, I love how you snuggle your head into my neck. I love how you throw your whole body over to the side when you want to nurse. You speak loudly without being able to say any words yet. I love how you belly-laugh when your sister tries entertaining you.
My mom, I love that God made you my mother, I am so blessed.
My dad, I love that you're a loving example of what a dad should be.
My sister, I love that you're so giving and you have a beautiful heart.
My brother, I love how nice you are to me and how you give 110% to what you believe is right.
My neice, I love what a beautiful person you are, inside and out.
My nephew, I love how you like to play jokes.
My other nephew, I love how you play your ocarina all the time - don't ever stop.
My other mother, I love how you have a generous heart and that I can call you anytime and talk.
My other sister, I love how talented you are.
My other other sister, I love that I can call you sister now instead of just friend.
My other brother, I love that we can pick up and talk with each other even after not talking for a year or so.
My other other nephew, I love how you call me Aunt Kathy :)
My other other other nephew, I love how you talk to me like I'm cool :)
My other other other other nephew, I love your dancing!
My other neice, I love how sweet you are.
So that's my little family in a nut shell.
If I wrote about all my relatives, I may be here for a couple days! (15 aunts and uncles and 28 1st cousins.) But of course there's something I could find that I love about each one of them.
Anyway - here's to Valentine's Day - look for the good in everyone and let your love shine through!
