I have always loved words. I have a quote addiction that is fairly noticeable to anyone who follows me on Pinterest. But even before Pinterest I was a quote junkie. With stars in my eyes, I would send my soon-to-be husband quotes at the end of our emails and even if he didn’t share my love of mushy quotes he never said it and ultimately we did marry so I secretly think the quotes are what reeled him in.
I thought I would spend this Valentine’s Day reviewing our life together in quotes.
Beginning with dating
and then marriage
and then when the triplets came.
And then today, trying to remember the last time we’ve completed a conversation, vowing on occasional date nights that we can discuss something other than our children and pep-talking ourselves into thinking we are not actually getting older.
Of course what will follow today is someday, when we will have more than enough time to finish sentences and I will still be on my never-ending quest for the perfect quote. I may read him this and he may not hear me but that’s okay because he will have known all along.

Valentine’s Day is really special for me and my love. Actually we met on the same day 2 years before. I am planning a day out for her this Valentine and also a surprise dinner accompanied with a surprise Valentine gift. Is it fine or should I add something else? I have also prepared a handmade Valentine card for her.
Oh, the last one. Take away the “owing” and things work the way they’re supposed to. I adore that sentiment!
This is simply beautiful. I love the way you put your love story in quotes and I’m glad you’ve found someone you are so happy with!
I am also addicted to quotes – love these! Thanks so sharing. xo
What a super, SUPER idea Jessica. Loved reading about your marriage in quotes. In fact, re-pinning quotes on Pinterest is one of my favorite “pinterest-y” things to do. LOL. Next year maybe you should consider turning this into a Meme??? 🙂
I used to love quotes too. I have one posted on my fridge right now that I found in Real Simple magazine but I do not seek them out like I used to. You reminded me that I need to… And this is a great post to show the stages of love… 🙂
I’m a huge fan if quotes.
These a beautiful. And my husband and I are right in the middle of the spelling stage.
Love last quote especially – have not seen that one before. How I love a good quote.
Lovely. Perfect way to start my day of love. 🙂
I adore that last one.
Beautiful selection, Jess.
