Happy Valentine's Day

Becoming a mother has put many things in life in perspective and redefined my perceptions of other things.  (Wow, that is a very vague yet loaded sentence.)  I can honestly say that over the past eight months my concept of love has been redefined.  I used to consider "love" to be defined as an attachment or connection between two people based on a mutual admiration for something usually defined by some outward display of affection, reliance, or embrace. Since Avery's arrival this concept has changed....I now see "love" in a simple smile, a yawn, in a splash of water at bath time, in a face with tears strolling down, and in that sweet face sound asleep in my arms.  It utterly amazing me how much LOVE this little girl shows us daily.

Happy Valentine's Day!!
