I have been blessed beyond words with a loving family, but especially with my husband of seven years this June. For every article, television segment, commercial, radio announcement that I have come across, it only reminds me of how very much I love him, and how much I am loved by him. This photograph was taken after our wedding ceremony. We had just finished our “posed” photos with our wedding attendants and family and for the first time, we were completely alone. So much was ahead of us, and I’m not talking about the 175 people waiting at the reception! Everyone has their stories, their ups and downs, but for us, there is no doubt that our love for one another was enough to get us through those difficult times and it made the good times so amazing to share. On this cold winter’s night, with our yard and driveway covered in snow and ice, thinking of that moment, thinking of all that we have been through together, and all of the wonderful things that we have ahead of us just warms my heart.
I can not wait until our little girl is old enough to understand the real importance of this day, which is to tell the people you care about most that you love them. No; one day a year is not enough to celebrate love, but I’m going to enjoy this happy day full of love!

thanks for your note on my blog. Hope you had a nice Valentine’s Day with your Captain..as far as a secret….just enjoy each day, make the most of your time, set your priorities and be happy. Working together, being considerate, sharing, supporting one another …those are all good ways to help towards maintaining the balance you need to do both. You are just beginning your journey together with your baby…enjoy it all…so much fun to look forward to…and memories to make.
never a dull moment, but worth it all!
best,
