Happy Valentine's Day

If you know me at all, you know I would never, ever use a public forum, like a blog, to express my love and eternal appreciation for my husband, Shane.  I would never, ever say things like "I love him forever and ever, more and mostest, to infinity and beyond", because that's just cheesy and sappy.  I would also never say the over-used, but completely true cliche, "He completes me", or "He makes me feel whole", or "I love him more today than ever", because though true, these saying can induce vomiting and sugar-induced rashes.

I would never talk about how the last 7 1/2 years have been the best in my life, or how I'm looking forward to eternity with my family because I love them so much, because sicky-sweet admissions like that are just not in my DNA.  And, I would never give a link to the song that I'm in love with right now because it expresses how "Lucky" I am to be married to my best friend.  That's just not me.

I would never brag up how I have the  best kids - EVER - and say how much they mean to me, or how awesome they are, OR how they make every day better.  Because pride is not something I strive for, and therefore it would go against everything I believe to say things like how awesome my kids are on my blog.

It just must be the two hours of sugar-crazed, elementary school valentine's day parties, with two tired three year olds talking...

Happy Valentine's Day guys, I love you all.
