Posterior to death,
Initial of creation, and
The exponent of breath."
- Emily Dickinson
Today is Valentine's and also our Family Day. Six years ago today we brought a 22 - month old Daniel to the US Embassy in Guatemala City and obtained his passport and permission to come home together. It's a special heavyweight emotional day for our family, and we celebrate by eating out together and sharing stories and words that mean "I love you." The most precious words the ear can hear and the most sacred the lips can phrase. I hope you all exchange an "I love you" today and really let the words fill your heart with deep and grounding meaning. It's all we have, and all we really need.
Beautiful! Congratulations to you and your whole beautiful family.
