We all have people we love and we have people who love us. For me the people I love the most are my family members. I try my hardest to let them know how much I love them. For me Valentine's day is a time to reflect what all they have done for me and how much I appreciate the love I receive from them. My dad, Always knows how to put a smile on my face. This morning I got a text from him that said, "Good morning sweetheart! Happy Valentines to one of the loves in my life!" When I read this text it put a huge smile on my face! I know that my dad loves me but little things like this that he does makes me realize it more. My mom, I do not even know where to start. She is so amazing, a friend to call when I am having a bad day, a shoulder to cry on, the best advice giver! She is the best example of love, charity, humility, etc, besides our Savior, that I can think of. She is always there when I need her to be and is willing to do anything. My older brother David, one of my best friends! He is serving a 2 year mission for our church right now in Seattle. He is doing so great and I love hearing from him. We have a special relationship that I can not even describe. He is just such a great example to me. My brother Joe, I am so proud of how well he does at accomplishing the things that he sets his mind to. He is such a smart kid and he knows what he wants in life. I really admire that about him because it can be hard for some of us sometimes to really know what we want. But Joe, he knows what he wants and it willing to work for it. Kayley, my one and only sister. But I would not have it any other way, I could not ask for a better younger sister. Her and I have such a silly friendship I just love it. I love going home because I know going home I will be able to have at least one sister date with her. I love those so much and I always look forward to them. She is also turning into such a beautiful young lady, I do not know where my little sister went because she is no longer little. And my little bud, Aaron, boy he is such a goof ball! I love him so much. He can brighten anyone's day, but he can also be the biggest comforter you need. I love spending time with him, even though he is growing up way too fast! I feel like every time I go home he is so much bigger than when I left. He teaches me lessons that I need to know or that I may just need to remember.I love my family so much. Valentines to me is so much more than just buying chocolates and flowers. It is remembering why you love someone. I hope that everyone has a wonderful Valentine's day and does not get too down if they do not have that romantic kind of love type of day.
