When we met, we were both in the arts, there were no strings, no mortgage, no expectations. Parenting and life have changed that.
We are moving into a new phase, and though there is so much uncertainty, the constant is this: He is my valentine. My history, and a very deep part of who I am. I am more myself when I am with him.
Some say that Valentine's Day is just a Hallmark holiday, invented to lure poor saps into spending money. That may be so, I'm just cynical enough to believe that story. But that doesn't mean it's not a great idea. Because sometimes it's important to have a date on the calendar that's about nothing but celebrating love, in all it's crazy, wonderful forms.
And about remembering beginnings and the love that's gotten us this far.

That was just beautiful! Just beautiful.
Aww. Thank you for that Annie. It made me cry and reminded me that I do still believe in love.
Happy Valentines day to you and your two guys.
love,
