Family and February

February.... the 2nd month of the year.... red and pink...colors associated often with this month....President's Day....Valentine's day..... A recent commercial said Valentine's Day is a day about "us". I like that. But February is my least favorite month of the year. February 3rd would have marked my parents 72nd wedding anniversary ( if they had been here ), my sweet Aunt Betty passed away on this day also..... February 14th marks the 5 year anniversary of my daddy leaving this earth and February 26th will be the 23rd anniversary of my mom leaving us. There is only 1 highlight for me in this, the shortest month of the year. That would be February 22nd. That was the day my beautiful Amy came officially into my life. So except for "Amy's Day", I dread February every year. If I could go from January straight to February 22, and then to March... I would.
