Love. Amazing, life-changing love. That's what the kids decided that Valentine's Day should be all about for us.
And when we sat down and thought about love in our lives, one little love stood out and took the cake- Isla. She rang in the new year on January 2nd with her surprise arrival, and she continues to steal hearts left and right with her squawks, squeaks, and even a first smile awarded to the mommy who adores her more than language allows.
So we have a question and a "first valentine" (to be delivered this weekend because mommy is too cheap to FedEx anything ever) for our Cousin Isla.
Unfortunately, this simple question developed into a conversation....
A conversation in which even the subconscious spoke....
And everyone pled their case...
Everyone, including canine species...
And now, as we wait for your valentine to dry (made from watercolors that we painted which dried yesterday and were cut into triangles to make a heart where the paste is still wet), we would like to know your decision. This might just be the first and most important decision you've ever made apart from the one to prefer your mommy's breast to just about anything else in the world.
We have no yummy breast to offer you but we've made our question clear.
Please burble out an answer and prove you'll be our dear.
