sharing love

i love you card by pistachiopress

.......................

how do you share your love?
i'd love to hear!

in this whole wide world there is nothing i love more then my wonderful, fun, thoughtful family.

and this past weekend we celebrated a glorious family milestone: the most-fabulous wedding of my darling brother and my glorious new sister! it was the most wonderful of times:

some things remembered:

• i'm so lucky to have a family that shows and shares their love.

• it was an honour to be part of such a sincere + loving event and be warmed by amazing person after amazing person articulating so beautifully: by their words, in song, by their actions;  how they loved my brother and my new sister, D + A. 

• it was so wonderful to have everyone affirm how D + A had inspired their lives, filled all of our lives with love and generousity,  and to smile at how they spread kindness + thoughtfulness everywhere they go. 

it was, no doubt, the gosh-darned-est most loving, most lovely, most filled-with-sharing-love wedding i've ever been to.

i love you nicies so much, d + a.

thanks for spreading love everywhere you go.

so.. i ask... how do we show our love, nicies?

how do you communicate with those around you {that mean so much to you!}  that you love and appreciate them?

a note?

a call?

a visit? 

a hug?

how can we as parents, aunts, teachers help inspire our children to be loving people who can express their love in wonderful,healthy ways? 

what are some ways others have shown YOU love that you appreciate? 

here's to spreading love this weekend, nicies, and to letting those around know how much they mean to us!

love loves!
