"To her the name of father was another name for love."

[me & my dad circa 1992.]

happy fathers day 

to my dad.

i love you to the moon & back, pops. you are my hero. 

your Anna Banana

Where I truly belong.

[5.30.2011. Germany.]

And after the ups & downs & shuffling around, I have found 

my home away from home. 

And I couldn't be more  

happy. excited. inspired. thankful. blessed.

xo-

grateful for You.

i am grateful for You. 
It's true!  there are so many things in my life to be grateful for.
i take so much for granted. i must change that about myself.
correction: i am going to change that about myself.  

 {inspiration from this print found here.}

because i am so blessed.  
blessed beyond belief. 

knowing the amount of Love in my life, makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

& always know, I Love You!

Happy Friday, Lovebugs.

I hope it is full of blessings.
