Squishy Heart Syndrome

Whenever I see a movie with cute animals in it, I always squeal and tell Clarence to get me one. The other day I was watching something, and I saw an elephant. I've always loved elephants, so when I see them I'm especially squishy about them.



This Valentines Day, we didn't have any money, so we had plans to stay home and watch a movie and drink some wine. As soon as it hit midnight, and Valentines Day started, Clarence told me Happy Valentines day, and handed me this tiny metal elephant that obviously spent a lot of time making in his metal shop. (He has machines to make big pieces, but he had to carve down the metal, and sand and dremel and such) Then he told me, "you said you wanted an elephant...I can't buy you one, so I made you one." This makes me squishy. Very squishy. (Squishy = feeling loved/ in love/ having lots of affection for)





Every day I'm surprised by the fact that I love him more than the day before. I didn't think that was possible.
