My Valentine

I told Mommy a few weeks ago that I have a new Valentine now. Truth is, now I finally have my chocolates to go with the beautiful rose I've had for years. The crazy thing to me is that Beck and I have celebrated Valentine's Day for however many years its' been, but I've never been more in love with her.

I know, I know... here's that sappy guy again. Sorry everyone, but there's just something about watching my wife care for our beautiful daughter that makes my heart skip a beat everytime.

I never realized how much having Charlotte in our home would enhance our relationship. We have always had a great partnership, and worked together well. But caring for our daughter has made us really focus on our teamwork, and our marriage seems to be flourishing because of it.

You hear all the stories about what fatherhood does to guys... it seems so ironic that most of us are so afraid to become Dads, when becoming one holds the key that unlocks so many of our restraints.
