What is Love?

There are certainly plenty of songs, poems and thoughts about love but, has anyone really figured it out? It's an elusive topic, for sure. Many people are in search of it but I'm not sure how many people find it.

On this Valentine's Day, love is in the air. Everywhere you look there are heart shaped EVERYthings. So I thought I'd take a moment to ponder my true love. Until I met Devin, I had experienced love in a number of ways - with family, with friends, love of the Beatles, love of MY Beetle. But the love I now share with my husband is one so different than any of the others I had ever known.

I believe it's because it reflects the love of our creator. I truly believe that God orchestrated our lives being brought together and has blessed our relationship. We love because God first loved us.

How do I love him? Let me count the ways...

• I love that he makes me feel safe.
• I love that he makes me feel beautiful.
• I love the way that he's a Daddy.
• I love the way he encourages me to be a Mommy.
• I love the way he makes me LAUGH.
• I love that we agree on the fundamentals and are committed to this life together.
• I love the way he knows me.
• I love his thoughtful and analytical mind.
• I love his attention to detail.
• I love his positive outlook and encouragement.
• I love his beautiful blue eyes and how they look at me.
