St. Valentine's Day for my Girls, pt III: Diane

My dearest love,

I love you with all my heart, from the day I fist saw you ^^) to today, to now and forever.

You are the most beautiful person in the world, because your outward elegance and poise and grace is at one with the radiance of your soul.

God blessed me with you.

I love you.

Your dearest hubs

St. Valentine's Day for my Girls, pt II: Elena Marie

Dear Elena Marie,

My Elvish princess, I still remember how you would parade about the house with your moo-cow, pleased as punch to have the run of the house.

What a fine, you lady, graceful and gentle, wise and kind, you have become. Know that God loves you and watches over you, carrying the weight of having a (very) weird, (very) old Dad.

And let's not forget: chocolate and ramen, ... but not mixed together.

Love, Papa

St. Valentine's Day for my girls, pt I: Isabel

Dearest Isabel,

When you were born, your mother held you in her arms and cried, "My baby, my baby!

Beloved of God, one thing you will always have as long as I have breath in my body is the love of your father.

I love you.

Papa
