Love Blows

                                                                            Happy Valentine's Day!
                                                A quick post to say sometimes the right photo can give you
                                                 the perfect amount of inspiration and my new blog header
                                                                       is the catalyst behind just that.
                                                  I got the idea from Pinterest, to pose my middle daughter
                                                                     in front of a wall of heart stickers
                                                                 (There's no rest from Pinterest, I say!)
                                              She has recently felt the crushing pain of her first heartbreak
                                                     and when I saw this scene through my camera lens,
                                                           I knew a page was born titled "Love Blows".
                                                                At 15, she has sadly learned this truth.
                                                                    But like all youth, she is resilient
                                                            and the tears have stopped, I am happy to say.
                                                    I love her so much and am so proud of the young woman
                                                                            I see unfolding before me.


                                                          I leave you with a photo op I staged back in 2004
                                                                   of my girls when they were SO little :(
                                                                  Their Daddy loved this gift very much!


                                                    Hope your day is filled with love (and chocolate too!)
                                                                                        -Jody

  3. Ahhhhh....the first heartbreak. Funny how you never forget how that feels! I fear that our sweet girl will break many hearts along her way, hopefully hers not as many times broken! I wish for her a love that is strong and healthy, growing and changing, and allowing her to breathe and be. Love your post! As always!
