Happy Valentines Day!



For a FHE in January we each wrote each other 7 love notes.
Then on each day of the first 14 of february we each had a Valentine to open.
It was fun, and Brayden really enjoyed it!
Some were cute, some where coupons for different activity, some were funny.
This is by far the cutest one:
(This one is to Josh, from Brayden. It says:
Free Helper, Me and a cute stick figure.
Good for many times)


Then on each day for the first 14 days, cupid left love notes with different things for Brayden.
This was his favorite:

(One of Brayden's favorite treats - sparkling cider)
He was excited!

Emotional

I have cried every day the past week.
For those of you that know me, you know that is very abnormal.
I cry maybe once a month usually around my time of the month, or on Fast Sundays...
Every day this past week.
Josh asked me "why are you so emotional?"
I really have no idea, what I do know is that our birth parents are out there somewhere.
Somewhere and I feel like I am trying everything short of advertising in the newspaper or on a billboard.

I can't help but wonder if this is maybe a difficult time for our birthparents, or maybe this is the month our baby is conceived. I can't help but cry, just thinking of the possibilities. But I know you are out there and that you may be struggling, cause I can feel it.
I want you to know you are LOVED.
We can't wait to meet up so we can compare notes and time frames...but for now, on these days I will have to blog and pray that you are safe.

Lots of love and lots of tears this week,
Mel
