Come On Baby With Me, We're Gonna Fly Away

It's Sweet Story Sunday! Today's sweet story isn't about romantic love, but a different kind of love- the love of a mother and son, and of strangers reaching out to make a difference.


Taylor Swift wrote this song for a little boy named Ronan, who died of cancer at 4 years old. Swift co-wrote the song with the little boy’s mother, Maya Thompson, after reading one of her blog entries. Thompson has written many heartfelt and emotional posts on her blog Rockstar Ronan about her son and his battle with cancer. In early September, she wrote a post directed to Ronan. She wrote, "I told your Sparkly the other day, 'If Ronan had to die, you can make damn sure I am going to make something amazing come from it. He will change the face of childhood cancer.' I hate that it had to be you. But baby, just maybe, someday, another little boy or girl won't have to die from this disease because of the awareness you are bringing to it." All proceeds from the song will be donated to cancer charities.

Darling, You Look Wonderful Tonight

What girl doesn't love slow dancing with her guy? A slow dance can be a quick and easy way to add a burst of romance to the end of a date night, or at anytime for that matter. It’s an easy way to reconnect physically and emotionally, and it doesn’t even involve any talking! The key to a perfectly romantic slow dance is picking the perfect song! It can be ‘your song’ or a song that’s lyrics say just what you are feeling in that moment. Songs move us and inspire us. Pick the right one and you can inspire your loved one with some serious romance! There are so many great songs out there, but here is a suggestion for 10 all-time great love songs :)


At Last” …. Etta James
When You Say Nothing At All“… Allison Krauss
Unforgettable“… Natalie Cole & Nat King Cole
Bless The Broken Road“… Rascal Flatts
Can’t Help Falling In Love“… Elvis Presley
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face“… Roberta Flack
"Wonderful Tonight"... Eric Clapton
When A Man Loves A Woman“… Percy Sledge
The Way You Look Tonight“… Michael Buble
Because You Loved Me“… Celine Dion

Don't Look, Fate Can Only Find You

Sweet story Sunday! (Ahhh technically Monday, just a minute late) Just a little reminder that everything happens for a reason, and there is usually something good hidden in the bad

"Exactly 10 years ago today almost to the minute, I stopped at an intersection and a car rear ended me. The driver was a student at UF, just like me. He was cordial and apologetic. As we waited for the cops and the tow truck we chatted and started laughing together about all sorts of stuff. We exchanged numbers and the rest is history. We just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary."


Sweet serendipity,

Love is All You Need

I've decided that every Sunday I will post a short sweet story about love, to hopefully inspire you and put a smile on your face :)

"Today, as my 91-year-old grandfather (a military doctor, war hero, and successful business owner) rested in his hospital bed, I asked him what his greatest life accomplishment was. He turned around, grabbed my grandmother’s hand, looked her in the eyes, and said, “Growing old with you.”



The greatest thing in life is love,

And I Don't Believe in Time

I was thinking today about how no one ever has time these days..no one has time to do anything, no one can make time for each other, everyone is always too busy. I think that is one of the major problems in relationships these days too...because everyone is so busy...but in a relationship you still need quality time with each other. Like anything, as much effort as you put in is as much as you're going to get out of it. In a relationship, sometimes you have to MAKE time. It's possible. You have to remember that making time for each other doesn't ALWAYS mean you're going on a lavish date....sometimes it means folding laundry together, or cooking dinner, or even running errands together. Anyone can have fun together doing a fun activity, but it really says something when you can enjoy each other's company doing something as simple as grocery shopping together. Quality over quantity. If your main goal is just to spend time together, does it really matter what you're doing? ;)




Making time,

One Love, One Heart

Tonight I am in the company of a couple who has been married for 43 years. Love that can last that long really boggles my mind. In 4 decades I can only imagine the trials and obstacles a relationship faces, and what it means for two people to conquer whatever comes their way, together, and ultimately come out even stronger in the end. 


I love this quote, I think it is the true definition of what love should be



“Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life." -Bob Marley
