What do I love?

Being Valentines and all...I thought I'd post some of what I love...

Miss Megan MeiLin, of course! While knowing what she looks like brings me to a new kind of love for her, I've loved her for many, many years. I'm not sure if it started back in 1999 when I knew I had a daughter in China or in 2000 when I began praying for our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Or maybe it was when finally began the process to bring our Megan home. But at some point in there, I have loved her. Seeing her face last week makes me love her even more...to know who she is and where she is brings a new level of love.


Of course, I would be remiss if I didn't mention my wonderful husband. (And maybe he should be posted in the #1 spot, but my new love took it!) While he's an "old" love, its gotten sweeter with age. I've been in love with him for more than 11 years. I often reflect how different my life would be if I had not met him. And I must say that I think it would not be as fulfilling as it is right now. I could come up with a laundry list of things I have right now that I would have without him, but they would be minor compared to the fact that I wouldn't have him in my life. He is such an amazing, wonderful man. Really most words fall far short of explaining and describing how much I love him and what he means to me.


Happy Valentine's Day, my loves!
