And the Greatest of These is Love.

"Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and loveand the greatest of these is love."
1 Corinthians 13:13 (NLT)

I have been spending the last week or so with my niece Annalia. She is the cutest thing in the world and I love her to pieces. I have always loved kids, but spending time with Annalia melts my heart and I can't even imagine wanting to do anything else with my life other than teaching preschool and being a mom someday. Annalia brings so much joy to my life. Seeing the world through the eyes of a child is one of the most meaningful blessings in the world. Honestly. She is almost two so of course she has her tantrums and moments when she is not the most pleasant child around. But once she gets through that she is the happiest kid in the world. She has the sweetest laugh that is definitely contagious, and eyes that will break hearts someday. I love her with everything in me. And I will never let her think otherwise. She will always know that she is loved.

Love Who You Love. Rascal Flatts.

I should have stolen every moment
Now there's a page
With not enough on it
Where we belong
I guess i'll never understand it
Why do we take it all for granted
Until it's gone
'Cause then it's gone

Love who you love
With all that you have

And don't waste the time
That flies so fast
Love who you love
And say that you do
Hold on as tight as they'll let you
Love who you love

Give all you've got
Like it's your last day
Your heart and soul
Before it's too late
And pull them in so close
Enough that they can feel it

With every single breath that
You're breathing
Breathe it in again and again

Love who you love
With all that you have
And don't waste the time
That flies so fast

Love who you love
And say that you do
Hold on as tight as they'll let you
Love who you love

Hold on, Hold on

Yeah, Love who you love
Say that you do - Yeah

Love who you love
With all that you have
And don't waste the time
That flies so fast
Love who you love
And say that you do

Hold on as tight as they'll let you
Love who you love

Yeah, Love
Love who you love
Say that you do
Hold on, Keep on holdin' on - yeah
Yeah, With every single breath
You're breathing
