Happy Valentine’s Day

~ ashley smith

I’ve had two special Valentines in my life.

Two men.

One that I started life with and one that I hope I’ll end life with.

One does not replace the other.

The first one taught me how to better love, to make memories, cherish everything and to fight for what I want.

The second one taught me that it’s ok to love again, to build a family with someone else, and that broken pieces turn into beautiful things.

There is so much love in my heart for these two men.

To the first one, thank you for the life you started and ended with me. Thank you for teaching me the most important things in life, to love and to fight. Thank you for the six amazing Valentine’s days you made special for me. Death may have separated us, but as long as I live I will forever love you.

To the second one, thank you for helping me piece my life back together. Thank you for loving me when I was a complete mess. Thank you for taking my two kids in as your own. Thank you for teaching this broken lady to love again. I pray that we share many more Valentine’s days together. I love you more now then I did at the beginning.

To the widows/widowers who are struggling on this day, I know your pain. Remember the love you shared. And know that it’s ok to love again when your heart is ready regardless of what others think. After all God’s plan will surprise you. Love overpowers!

Happy Valentine’s Day❤

Hey yall! Just alittle about me. I am not your average young lady. Got married in July of 2010. Had my first child, a boy in December of 2010. Had my second child, a daughter in December of 2011. My world started falling in July of 2015. Then in June of 2016 I became a widow. Such a tragic that still haunts me. Story for a later day. I begin to pick the pieces up. I fell in love again. Had my third child, a boy in November of 2017. Married a man that I fell in love with in June of 2018. I am only 28 years old and I tend to carry alot on my shoulders here lately. Balancing several different things. To release pressure built up from stress life throws at me I tend to write alot. And well thats where I am now. I am coming from my notebook once again and releasing it to the internet to hopefully inspire and encourage others who are like myself and have been dealt a hand of troubling cards. Life is hard, but God is good!
