Happy Valentine's Day!

My earliest Valentine's Day memory with Dave is from college days when I decided to clean his dorm room as a surprise. (not sure why I thought that made a good Valentine's Day present?)  It was disgusting, and he was wearing clothes off of his floor.  12 loads of laundry, all of my money, and an entire day later, and I had that nasty room spic and span.

Funny that I hardly remember any other Valentine's Days.  I have no clue where we were or what we did.  One thing I have always loved getting from Dave are love letters.  I recently decided to put them away in an album so I will have them forever.  It is too bad I did not start doing this sooner, because he gave me some good ones that I have misplaced over the years.  I was always impressed when he tried to write me poems. :)  This year I got another love note- I never take them for granted, and I always appreciate them. 

I decided to start a journal of love letters to Isla.  It is a book where I can just write down all kinds of loving thoughts to her.  One day she will be able to read it and and can keep it forever, knowing how much her mom loves her and always being able to look back through my eyes.  I just don't think you can ever tell someone that you love them too much.  I started the journal today...what a better day than her first Valentine's Day!
