Another Valentines Day Blog

I am completely aware that everyone and their 3rd cousin is blogging about Valentines day today. If you were looking to read something a little different, this is not it. I did not have some fancy date tonight nor did anyone besides a bunch of 4 year olds send me flowers, yet I am fully content. I have become freakishly aware of the love I have for people around me. Just to name a few… MOM: I love you. I hate that those words are so overated and I wish I could use some more explosive phrase or word but that’s all I got. I love you. You are beautiful and strong and I don’t know that I would be able to live if I did not have you. DAD: You and I have never been too close, but I feel a great amount of love and emotion when I think of you. I hate that you are so far away but I know its what’s best. Thank you for your efforts. Thank you for those times you call me just for the sake of calling me. It means more to me then you will ever know. Vilmari: most times we want to ring each others necks and use foul language towards each other, but your my sister. My only sister and for you, I would do anything. Even though I’m still mad your the pretty one. Alejandro: I feel like we have never been apart. We have always been side by side, fighting together. You are my twin, my best friend, my brother. Thank you for giving me the single most important thing in the world: Samantha. She’s quite a piece of perfection. Sammy wam: The first time I held you in my arms, you looked into my eyes and I told you I loved you. I began to cry and ill never forget how my tears landed in your eyes and you began to blink and I swear you smiled at me.. You are the light of my life and my biggest pride.. I will always be here even when you get older and go through puberty and get annoying. I will always love you like I do right now, at this very moment. I can’t say I will love you more because I cannot fathom the thought of loving you anymore then I do right now. I LOVE YOU. Monica, becky, jonathan, jonmicheal: I know we have different lives and are all grown up, but I will always cherish the bond us 7 share. We have 60 other cousins yet we have always all been like glue. I love you guys more then you could ever know. I love how we all grew up side by side like brother and sister.. I will forever choose you guys over absolutely anyone. Also I am so proud of how good looking you all turned out ( with the exception of jonathan :/) I want us to always be close and never spend a holiday away from eachother. Deal?I love you freaks :) GABY: 17 years and we are still best friends? WOW. Nothing could ever compare to our friendship. To call you my best friend is almost an insult. Your my sister and I love you. JENNY: you’ve been driving me crazy since the 9th grade and you drive me crazy now. I am forever grateful I have found someone who is even clumsier then me. I love you very much. JACKIE: You have seen all the different sides of me yet you love me anyways and I am eternally grateful for you. I have known you what 3 years? But it feels like an eternity. Your friendship means the world to me. The people I’ve named are just a few. I am grateful for so many more. Dayli, Mel, Tiffany, Yolie, Angela, Francys, Barbie, Carol, Michelle, my grandparents Carlos and Wilma. I love you. You all love me and I can’t even fathom it. And though I stink at showing it, I love you more then you will ever know. Screw boyfriends and roses, valentines day is about appreciating the people who put up with me everyday. Its about getting to work and having your desk covered by roses and chocolates by a bunch of four year olds who tell me they love me everyday, not just on Valentines Day. Its about hanging out with your niece and realizing she has stripped you of a social life and not giving a crap. Its about the guy upstairs who gave, made, and is love to begin with.
