As stated in my previous post, I'm not a huge fan of people. The few I let in, I love with an intensity that is difficult to explain. My husband's children, my child, my real family and the family of friend(s) I have made.
Today is a day for lovers, but I always think about it as a day for love. It's a time to reflect on those you love and why. So here it is:
My Husband: For seeing the best in me at my worst and loving me in spite of it. For taking such good care of me and hardly going a day without me feeling loved so tremendously. I truly could never imagine my life without him, he is my air.
My Kids: For being that, my kids. One I birthed and 3 I inherited with marriage. I can't imagine my life without any of the inherited ones, like I can't imagine my life without my son.
My Brother: For reconnecting with me and letting me be there for him through everything he is going through. And listening to me.
My Mom: For always trying to get me to look on the bright side, when all I can see is dark. And for booking a couple of tickets for my wee one and I to head home for a week.
My Dad (chosen one): For stepping in and being a freaking awesome dad! I really am happy that he chose to be part of my life.
My Dad (the bio one): For owning up to the past and being willing to move ahead in the present. It will be nice to rekindle a missed relationship.
Tanca: My bestest friend, for always listening to me when I feel like my world is coming to an end. You're the peanut butter to my jelly!
Brandi: For understanding that just because I don't carry on hour long conversations with you all the time doesn't mean I love you any less!
These are my thoughts on love on Valentine's Day. Even if I don't get a gift from my husband, I get one every day as it is.
