valentine's day

it's all about love.
AND
i am loved.

valentine's day is a day to celebrate love. 

last valentine's day my parents celebrated with the news that i would soon become a part of their family. this year they celebrated in the fact that i am now here...and i know they love me very much...

this is my sweetheart, John Eli. he surprised me for valentine's day and took me to his play mobile.

 it was so thoughtful of him. i had a truly wonderful time. he is such a gentleman.

 i wish i had long curly locks like him...

and in the spirit of valentine's day, emery would like to show off her new pink collar.

and now for another view....she is quite proud of it.

love. it's what makes me grow. happy valentine's day.
