a valentine to remember...

you know February 14th aka Valentines Day is National Singles Awareness Day.  it used to be if you received flowers at work then you stand out.  nope, now you stand out if you don't get anything.  well, not me.  i got everything i wanted.  my valentine was my addycat.  let the date begin...

never say never here we come.   3D!  i could have watched the movie by looking through her eyes.  just a big shout out to the bieb for being the kid my daughter idols.  i look over in the movie and i see ad sitting there with her legs crossed and her elbow placed ever so gently on her knee while her chin rests on her fist.  the look in her eyes made this one memorable day.

after the movie she wanted mcdonalds.  you know if every restaurant put a Mc in front they would get the kids seal of approval.  mcel chico, mcrib crib, mcred lobster... you get it.  we go to mcd's.  yep!  we are dining in and here comes what i call the addy conversation.  she told me that she had 3 things in common with Justin Bieber.  left handed, played the guitar & his parents were divorced.  my nose twitched like someone was talking about me.  my eyes wanted to water but i fought the urge.  as i think the conversation passes she proceeds to tell me that she doesn't like going back and forth.  she wants mom & dad back together.  now, if i can get this lump out of my throat.  i have this memorized... ad, mom and dad decided to make your life better.  your sister didn't have a dad before and now she does.  this makes your life and her life better.  the most important thing is that you are happy. 
what the crap?  this is when i start to second guess my decisions.  my thoughts are like a tornado in my head wondering what i am going to say next.  here goes ad.  mom, i am happy because you make me happy.  she thanked me for always making her smile when her heart hurt.  wow, this 7 year old has had to grow up way to fast.  i told her that i would not be "me" without "her".  she then tells me that she wants to be just like JB.  i hope she holds on to that dream.  while i dream of many more days like this.  days where she questions all while telling me she is okay.  
as for NSAD {see above if you forgot what that stands for} i got more than flowers.  i got love and when you see me or ad smile we stand out!!!  we don't need no stinkin flowers... just chocolate!!!
