you are my i love you





We had a wonderful Valentine's Day. We are so lucky to have two beautiful girls as our valentines. I found a few sweet books for Emma Jane and Vivi and cute stuffed animals covered in fun prints. I also stumbled upon a book for Paul from the girls called "You Are My I Love You". I will have to quote a few lines here because it is one of the sweetest children's books I've ever read (and I've read MANY!). It truly describes the relationship that Paul has with Emma Jane and will one day soon have with Vivi. I'm sure any parent would feel the same.

I am your parent; you are my child.
I am your quiet place; you are my wild.
I am your calm face; you are my giggle.
I am your wait; you are my wiggle.
I am your carriage ride; you are my king.
I am your push; you are my swing.
I am your way home; you are my new path.
I am your dry towel; you are my wet bath.

There's more, but I don't want to ruin it for those of you who might like to read this book for yourself.

Happy Valentine's Day!
