I do love this month! Right after the adorable groundhog peeks up from his hibernation, the month is rolled out with love at every corner. Yes, the 14th brings Valentines Day with much more to celebrate, as that day is also my oldest daughters birthday. Just as we catch our breath and the last of the cake is done, along comes the 17th and my youngest daughters birthday! AND I found out on the 5th my middle daughter is expecting her first child. 
The memories of the month include juggling the birthdays with one of them always falling on the weekend of the Daytona 500, kick off race for Nascar season. Having grown up in St Augustine with a background in the Auto industry, this was huge. I remember the rumbling of the cars during race weekend, that went all the way into the heart and the smells of the race pits.
As I rode my bike this morning along the coastal trails in Half Moon Bay, I reflected back to those earlier years with affection that swelled the spirit. I watched as a hawk soared above the ocean swells and could actually taste the salty waters as I envisioned myself gently floating in time with them.
I do hope this month finds you joy and happiness.
