One of my kids asked me once what love looked like.
"It's not something you can see," I said. "It's more of a feeling."
But you know what? I think maybe I was kinda wrong. And here's why. Too many times I have received outward signs of love that have made a huge difference in my life. In fact, in the last month I can count numerous times this has happened.
So what does love look like?
Well, it looks like a care package on your doorstep from your niece and nephews when you get home during a bad week.
It looks like the cars that people drive me around in since I can't drive myself.
It looks like a big ass Pepsi from my husband "just because."
It looks like new outfits that were picked out by my sister and cousin because I was feeling less than beautiful.
Yeah, if one of my kids asks me that question again I think I'm going to have a very different answer. Because lately I've been seeing a whole lot of love around me.
I'm a mom of four, a wife and a writer. Oh, I also happen to have MS. This blog is all about what happens when those two worlds collide.
