Dearest Valentine,
You are exceptional. Whether we are snuggling or playing with your kitchen set, you always have time for a kiss. You share your food without complaint. No one gives hugs quite like you. Your eagerness to learn everything is inspirational.
This Valentine’s Day we want you to know that you hold our hearts. You’ve seen us be great parents… and you have seen us fail as we scramble to keep up with your toddler heart. You, dear one, have shown us what it means to love fully and unconditionally. We knew love before you but we didn’t really understand how deep love could go. It is a whole other level of being that we were never aware existed. You are incredibly fearless, smart, and beautiful. We want to give you everything we can. So, on this day of love and every day, please know that you inspire us to be better, driven, and loving. You are our hearts walking around outside of our bodies. We know you don’t understand that, but trust mama and daddy when we say, that’s the ultimate power.
Keep dancing, singing, coloring, running, creating, and being you. You are the perfect Valentine. We love you oh so much. We love you to and through the delta quadrant and back. A million times.
Love,
Mama and Daddy
