Love

is

more than

evolution required.

  1. I saw this quote from the book somewhere few weeks ago. It is the reason I’m putting up with this book and will finish reading it soon. Love is not a fin or a tail or an extra unnecessary tooth. It’ll be the last thing to pass through the evolutionary blades.

    The photo!!! Preciousness…
    Rachel’s face? Total beautiful surrender.
    I’m not crying.

    1. This is profound: “Love is not a fin or a tail or an extra unnecessary tooth. It’ll be the last thing to pass through the evolutionary blades.” Wow.

  2. Reblogged this on It Is What It Is and commented:

  3. I could just simply cry over this absolutely adorable, beautiful, touching picture…. And the words underline this loveliness!

  4. Sweetness along the road of love…the blooming foundation of evolution building forward…one day it will be an honor to see a photo of you, Susan, Rachael and Eric with their babies 🙂 then of course you will be dubbed Grandpa-pa…blissful moments!!
