Cranial Hiccups

Every once in a while and totally unintentionally my brain spews out a good idea.

You are here: Home / Family Life / What is love?

What is love?

February 14, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 13 Comments

Is it a surprise picture left on a camera?

Joseph's surprise note 01

A couple exchanging vows to cherish one another?

Is it a mother holding a newborn, breathing in a bit of heaven?

Kisses

Or a father with a baby bundled up in his coat?

Ira & Joseph 03. 12-25-2006

Is it manifest in the hard labor to provide?

Or the sweet scene of children piled on a lap while scriptures are read?

Does it sound like a giggle?

Tickle Fight!

Or the smack on a cheek?

Me and my guy

What is love?

It’s dancing in the rain

dancing in the rain

and rolling in the sunshine

tumbling

It is worry over a sick loved one

It is flying through the air

a dizzying spin of happiness.

Ring Around the Roses

This is love.
It is our story.
And it is still being written.

      Thanks! The dress is a replica of my great-grandmother’s wedding dress. She was married in 1912. I would have worn hers but it was too yellow.

    You have a beautiful happily ever after story. Not that it is always easy but it is sooo worthwhile and the blessings are so great.

    Absolutely ADORE the pic of you kissing a newborn. (I assume you? Unless . . . one of your older daughters?). Love the detail. The up closeness and the freckles!

      Yes, that’s me! Everyone was gone to church and I had just gotten out of the shower so my hair was still wet. I just couldn’t help taking a photo of me and my newborn. I had to hold my left arm out at a weird angle but was so happy to get the picture!
