Today, in honor of Valentine’s Day, I’d like to share this older post with an added update. I believe in this cause and I am proud of how my sweet girl decided to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Remember when I talked about that Wordsworth quote on kindness that I love? Well, I have always loved the…

My husband always teases me about my love for Kenny and his message: Drink it up. Don’t waste a drop. Squeeze every second out of that old clock. Don’t blink.
