Happy Valentine's Day...


I don't think my mom remembers this, but I do. As a single mom, she was always working, talking on the phone for business and busy doing what she needed to do. I was just being a child, following the weekly routine of two nights a week at my dad's, weekends at my grandparents' and the other nights at homebase. One Valentine's Day morning I awoke and hobbled into the kitchen for breakfast. On the kitchen table, to my surprise, I found the most adorable red, little bunny- mouse thing with a heart on it's stomach that said "Be Mine"!

I still remember that moment to this day, and at that moment I truly felt loved.

This year I gave Sofi and Jordan glitter snow globes with a big red heart in the middle...and I hope that one day they'll remember that their mom thought of them on Valentine's Day...even after they, too, will have lived chocolate, roses, romantic dinners and poetry written with love.

You were and always will be truly loved by your mommy no matter what else I am doing. I am truly blessed to have two amazingly wonderful daughters. You are destined for great things. Just a small bump in the road of life. Never forget the good things you have. Jordan and Sofia, nothing else matters. How fortunate you are. Love, Mommy
