After leading the office's Monday morning staff meeting, I headed back to my desk to find a long floral box. And inside were flowers from my daughter. The girl whose voice draws an instant smile to my face. Whose spirituality serves as a daily reminder to me of the kind of person I need to be every day. Who calls and texts me throughout the day with words of encouragement and endearment. She makes me laugh, a lot. I count her among the biggest blessings of my life. I adore being with her; such great company, whether we're doing something or nothing at all.
Harleigh Mabel, will you be my valentine? I do love you so.
You are a lucky mama! :) What a sweet gal you have! I can't wait to be friends with my girls someday. Right now I am in the trenches of teenagers. And hormones. And boys. And pimples. Enough said. Happy Valentines Day!!
