Love is

Love can be many things, but I think there's an unquenchable love that is constantly realizing how lucky we are to have people in our lives to love and live with. We are God's gift to each other. And He knows how desperately we need to love and need and serve and be needed by each other. We are not a species of independent individuals, but an inticately woven web of families, learning how to love {Learning how to be like Him}.

And He even makes it easy for us to love love love those we ought. How quickly we are infatuated as newlyweds and as new mothers (and fathers). It's a springboard into an eternal relationship that has the potential to enrich everyone who comes near it. Oh, the potential love has!

It is a great blessing to love and be loved. I love you Ems!

The thing that has been the biggest surprise for me as a new mom is how much I LOVE Alvin...I never could have imagined...

It's also been the biggest surprise in my marriage...finding out how limitless my ability to love is!
