I found my heart on Valentines day outside of my favorite thrift store in town. I stopped for a few minutes to decompress a little after leaving the hospital where I have been for the past 3 days with my 16 year old son. We just got news his toe would need to be amputated due to a bone infection and it had been a long hard day. Coming out of the store on my way back to my van so I could go tell my sons younger brothers the update about what was to come the heart was hanging on a branch by the building. It honestly made me smile and just feel like I wasn’t alone in this scary moment. I will cherish this heart forever.
