Happy Valentine's Day!

From Dublin, Ireland I wish you a very Happy Valentine's Day! I must admit that I have never really loved this holiday... Minus maybe when I was really little and got valentine's day cards from my classmates and a ton of candy to take home. Now it just feels like an oversold, commercialized holiday. At any rate, my Valentine is thousands of miles away so I am adopting my BFF Christine as my Valentine for the day. :)

We have a knack for being incredibly awkward and silly when we're together as you can see.

I feel incredibly lucky this Valentine's day because I have the greatest friends and family in the world. I feel incredibly loved by each and every one of them... But this time in particular I am not only surrounded by the love of friends and family but I am blessed enough to have a boyfriend that is so kind and loving and considerate. I have someone that has fought for me in ways that no one has and sees me... I mean really sees me and still continues to love me just the same. I can only hope he knows just how much he is loved today too.... Thousands of miles away or not. :)

Today I wish you all a wonderful day and I hope that no matter where you are or who you are with... I pray that you feel loved and cared for and blessed beyond belief. I hope you are surrounded with friends, family, significant people in your life that can tell you just how valuable you are.

Happy Valentine's Day Friends! <3
