Forever My Valentine

Everyone is spreading love with their significant other today and celebrating in so many ways. I am really happy for them and hope they never take what they have for granted. I hope they cherish every moment. For me, today only makes me realize what I had and what I have lost. I remember each year you used to call me “your little valentine” and you always did something sweet and memorable. Sometimes what you did cost nothing except your time but it was always special. It’s those things I hold close to my heart when I am missing you the way I am right now. I went to the cemetery earlier and brought you a red rose. Although you are not here to celebrate  the occasion, I will always be “your little valentine”. And you will forever be mine. I love you, Baby.

The Wait Continues

Our family waits for the arrival of my first granddaughter. My daughter has been on bed rest for a month now when early labor began. Luckily, they were able to stop it, but now we are ready for her to make her debut. My daughter was given three different  due dates in three different months so it seems as though it is taking so long to get here. She is scheduled for a c-section on the 21st if she doesn’t have her before then. So I know it won’t be too long now. Our lives are going to change forever. But I know it will be a good change. We have never had a baby around the house. I look forward to exciting holidays as seen through the eyes of a child again. And I look forward to holding her in my arms, kissing her and smelling the wonderful fragrance of a freshly bathed newborn infant once more. I am so ready Addison. Please hurry! Plenty of  love awaits you.
