To my Valentines...

To my husband...
You are my true Valentine. I am thankful you did not go with the majority opinion back in our dating/breaking up/dating/breaking up/dating/breaking up years and "get over her". I remember thinking on our honeymoon, laying on the hammock in St.Lucia, that I could not possibly love you anymore than I did at that exact moment.

Boy, was I wrong.

I love you more now today than I ever have. I am amazed at how much one's heart can grow and expand to fit in so much love. With every child we've had, my heart has grown. For the child, yes. For you, more.

Thank you for being my perfect partner in life. You put up with A LOT and still manage a smile on your face when you enter our home after a long day of work and no down time to recharge.

I love you, my handsome husband.

To my first born...
Until you have a child of your own, you will never fully grasp how much you changed my world for the better when you arrived nearly 5 years ago. You are hilarious. You are brilliant. You are my biggest helper and if I was 27 years younger, you would be my best friend. I love every second I get to spend with you.

To my oldest son...
Thank you for ripping my heart out and turning me into mush the moment you were born. Boys mess up their mamas. You are a flirt and you know how to work your eyes to make me swoon. You are the cuddliest child of the bunch and every day when you wake up from your nap with your bed head, I melt again. You've got me.

To my baby girl...
Your personality has grown and developed more in the last month than ever before. You are crazy adorable and I just want to squeeze your chubby cheeks all day. I wish I could keep you 10 months old forever because I can't get enough of your baby-ness. Dancing with you is the highlight of my day, everyday.

To my baby boy...
Though you've turned the hairs on my head a lighter shade of gray, you are the reason I get out of bed each morning. You smile wider, laugh harder, and love louder than I've ever known in a baby. I will chase you forever, my little runaway bunny. Your sloppy kisses and cuddle growls are my daily medicine.

My heart is full to overflowing today, and always. Happy Valentine's Day.
